Default Early Ford V8 Club 2023 Grand National Meet

As many of you know, every five years the Early Ford V8 Club stages a Grand National Meet and it's that time again next year in June (the 11th through the 17th) in Dearborn, immediately prior to the famous Motor Muster held at Greenfield Village at the Henry Ford. The Club will be celebrating its 60th year Golden Jubilee with events only Ford's hometown can offer.

Early registration forms are available on the Club's website (earlyfordv8.org) starting today (under Upcoming Events in the left hand column of the home page).

Thanks for the heads up, David.
I'd just now printed off the requisite pages and will send mine in tomorrow.
My plan is to bring a number of cars.

I am really looking forward to this meet!

David, thank you for posting this information. Arrived home from the Eastern National Meet in Tennessee this past Wednesday, and already looking forward to attending the '23 Grand National Meet in Dearborn Michigan next June. Based on the ad in the latest May/June V-8 Times, it sounds like some great events, tours, and other attractions have been planned for the '23 meet. Will be mailing my registration this coming week.

Tubman, Because of all the magnificent churches in Detroit about a hundred years ago, when Detroit was one of the wealthiest cities in the world, Detroit was known as the Paris of the new world.

Guys,
Thanks for the gentle shove. I will begin the process. Cheryl is interested. Hopefully I can get John K (42 Deluxe) and his wife to join us also.
Guess that would mean I need to get busy and work on the truck a little. One thing I will not be doing, like a lot of others attending is polishing! Sorry just not going to happen to the ragged ol' truck.
Regards,
Chris

Chris,


Part of the charm is the work of Mother Nature in creating the finish it has now. Try as they may, no one has quite equaled it.
