My quest to find model T owners in Hungary, Europe

Post by Sarikatime » Thu Jun 18, 2020 2:49 pm

I have been trying to find model T owners in Hungary for the past several years to make contact with but keep coming up with dead ends. I have written many emails, private messages and letters to model T people in Europe without any replies. I even reached out to Susan Yeager in the mtfca museum who has given me several numbers but I receive no reply’s back. Sent email messages to several people in the USA as well, including Bruce Balough, the presumptive Hungarian possible contact but no commitments from anyone.
Now I am writing an open letter to whomever might be reading this and can help in locating one or more of the dozen or so Hungarian model T enthusiasts in Hungary to contact, whereupon I would be greatful. I will be in Hungary in October again to hopefully make contact in the hopes of spreading the enthusiasm and ensuring a long life for the model T hobby. There is no devious intent here, please!
Szeretnek kapcsolatot felvenni Magyarországon valakivel aki szinten Ford Model T bolond mint én. Én Arizonában USA-ban lakom de gyakran vagyok Magyarországon. Pesten leszek október elején lehetőleges talalkozora. Kapcsolatba kerülhetünk e-mailen keresztül, sarikatime@yahoo.com
Thank you for reading and hopefully helping me out in my crazy quest.

If you have read the above text, PLEASE COMMENT as to, keep trying, stupid idea, or whatever in between. I have nothing to gain personally with this adventure except maybe hoping that by the time I cannot physically care for my T it will still be worth something to other enthusiasts. Frank

Good luck with your search Frank. Have you also tried the Model T Club of Facebook? You reach a different bunch of people that way that do not go on this forum.

Pal is on Facebook. Found a fair amount about him. Frank, if you are also on Facebook, you might look for him there.

And how about Michael in Russia? He may also know some people close by to him.

Well, after grinding down my fingers to the bone on the keyboard with all the letters I wrote all over Europe, I finally made contact with the model T club president in Hungary. In my quest I also made contact with several wonderful people in Europe, such as the president of the model T club in Austria who has been a great help. Hope to have pictures in October of the meetings. Frank
