Default Model A News Has Shipped

To: All MARC Members
From: The MARC Office and the editor of the Model A News.

As of today December 10, 2020, the Model A News has mailed the November/December issue.

PLEASE be aware that there have been significant delays due to Covid and the Holidays from the Post office. This issue includes 2021 MARC National Membership Cards for members whose renewal was processed by MARC office at time of printing.

And this issue also includes the Registration Forms Insert for the 2021 MARC Membership Meet.
If you have not received your magazine in the next 2-3 weeks due to the delays please contact your local post office.

We thank you for your patience in this matter and are working to get everything back on schedule.
Sincerely Helen Ehrenhofer
Model A News Editor

With all due respect do you really believe my local post office would give a sheet if I received a magazine or not?

I like the Model A News for the in depth photos of correctly restored cars and parts on the cars.

Oh and the articles are good too

Don't blame the letter carriers, they want to make your deliveries! IT'S the post master general that needs fired! The letter carriers are mostly good people just like you and me, yes there are a few bad apples in a basket.

A vendor shipped me a part via the USPS on December 14. It’s shows as being in the Baltimore Distribution Center still today after arriving there from the vendor. Their tracking says I can expect delivery on December 17. Yes, that was 3 weeks ago.

Hmmm... Shouldn’t the November/December issue ship closer to November than December 10th? Some magazines ship a couple of weeks earlier than the publication date. Is it just me, or does it seem this magazine has been shipping late for a while?

Same here, NW Illinois no sign of it.

USPS is nothing like it used to be. And they wonder why they are going under.

Priority Mail?? Took three weeks for a 'Priority Mail' package to arrive to me from the middle of Iowa, about 150 miles away. Seems like the 'Priority' with these people today means 'when we dam well feel like getting around to doing our job.'

My November/December 2020 issue “wandered” into my mailbox today, 01/04/2021. That was a tad sloooooow, but then again, it’s late shipment start didn’t help any.
