On January 20th we're having a get together at my familys bodyshop. I'm not sure exactly what all the topics are going to be, I have a couple feelers out with others club members so I'm sure everyone will learn something. I'm going to either straighten or swap the front axle on my speedster build. I'll have it on the alignment rack so we can watch the camber and castor closely.
Lunch will be chili with chips and soft drinks, just asking for a small donation. A couple fellas are talking about bringing some stuff to swap so bring something if you can. We'll have the shop open at 8 am and start the topics at 12-12:30. In case of bad weather it'll be moved to Saturday the 27th. Hope everyone can make it, thanks for your time,
Billy Vrana,
Dairyland Tin Lizzie's Model T University

Hi Billy,
I could bring my Lab Scope/Strobospark setup, and I could check and set up coils for anyone that brings theirs in. Would need to get the word out to the people that are coming so they know to bring their coils with them. I have some new points I could bring with me also. Let me know if that's helpful.

I have the correct die for chasing the threads on exhaust manifolds and will bring it along. If anyone wants the threads chased on their exhaust manifold bring it along and I'll do it right there.
This is a fun event and there are usually about 40 guys there and maybe one or two women. The DTL ladies usually go on an outing as a group that day..
If you'd like to see the article and pictures from last years event, go to the Dairyland Tin Lizzies website and scroll down to our newsletter "The Buzz" and look in the first or second issue for 2023.

Todd, that would be great, I'll see if I can get an email out to the crew. And Keith, thanks for a better explanation of what goes on, it it a fun day. I'm sure no matter the weather Greg will drive his depot hack up from Germantown, he is a diehard T driver. Just a good way to break up the winter,
