Re: Has anyone received the new Judging Standard?
The books are in the hands of the two clubs judging chairman. It is my understanding that the books are "done" except for the the final approval from the two chairs. If one does not like what is presented the other must agree as well. I hope I'm wrong but this back and forth can take a while. Is it a desire to get it done right of a desire to have the last word? I don't know.

Wait until the Christmas package mailing rush is over.
That way there's less chance of them being lost in the mail. |

Re: Has anyone received the new Judging Standard?
I talked to the MAFCA office Wednesday and the lady told me they are still at the printer and are expected " any time now." She also said the printer has been saying this for weeks. Her guestimate was within a month. It will make good reading during a snow storm I guess.

Re: Has anyone received the new Judging Standard?
I checked Mafca web site yesterday and the message there was posted on Nov 29 that they were still at the printers awaiting the start of the production run. Not too likely any large quantity are at either club headquarters. The delay seems to be from printers....

It wouldn't be at the printer if both clubs/committees/chairmen hadn't approved.

I worked my way thru college at a print shop. It was always the printer's fault if something was delayed.

Re: Has anyone received the new Judging Standard?
I don't have mine yet either. When I ordered and paid for them at Hershey they were going to be going right out. They've been teasing us for a while now but I guess we have no choice but to wait.

Re: Has anyone received the new Judging Standard?
During the recent Model A club elections there was a gentleman on here severs limes a day answering questions and virtually begging for votes. He got elected but now he seems to have just about disappeared. Why is he not providing answers? Maybe he will not show again until next election. Wayne.

Re: Has anyone received the new Judging Standard?
Everyone who subscribed to the digital edition of The Restorer will receive an email with a link, when it is up and ready to go, that you can follow to read it. The target for this email to go out will be right around the same time that the paper copies are mailed out. So you will get an email roughly every 2 months.

Mine was in the mail today. Updated my book so it is up to date. Reminded me of putting revisions in Learjet Flight Manuals. I reviewed some of it and wow what a job the guys and gals did on this revision. It is above and beyond. Great job.

Re: Has anyone received the new Judging Standard?
Yes the volunteers should be commended for producing an outstanding specimen. These are truly the dedicated people committed to our hobby. They never get the credit they deserve. Each and every one of them deserves a pat on the back from each and every one of us. Our hobby salutes the entire group. Wayne .

Model A Fords are a great past time. Covered in every extreme. Not many others can lay claim to the thoroughness we have from folks in THIS car hobby. No other car marques come to mind with this sort of support. |

Re: Has anyone received the new Judging Standard?
Yes I received mine on the 23rd.
I was following the instructions that came with them. When I got to Area 10 ( Glass & Side Curtains ) it said to insert new Area 10 ( pages 10-1 thru 10-16 ). All that I received was pages up to 12. Question: Was this a misprint with the instructions or am I missing pages ( 13,14,15,16 ] 50B |

Re: Has anyone received the new Judging Standard?
Am I to understand that if you buy the complete Rev 4, it still has to be assembled from all the previous versions?

Re: Has anyone received the new Judging Standard?
The idea is to replace only the pages that have been revised. Some pages from previous revisions were not revised in the Revision 4 and thus are still applicable. Essentially the same procedure when the previous revisions came out.

Re: Has anyone received the new Judging Standard?
I like that! Yes it is a restoration guideline first and judging second. And they changed the name of the book to reflect that several years ago.

Re: Has anyone received the new Judging Standard?
My 28 and 30 Canadian cars are very original .The 28 has the original spare tire ,seat cover and top.They are early cars .Both had plate glass windshields .The 28 has a honeycomb radiator .The 30 Fordor has 29 parts on it .I have owned these cars over 60 years and got them from the original owners My guess is that they were assembled in Regina SK and soled by Max Zable ,the first Ford Dealer in northern ALberta . The Ford museum told me that Ford did things just to keep the line moving Thus my 28 rad

Re: Has anyone received the new Judging Standard?
eystein, yes, that is the one and only Sissel. One of our Model A club members sent me an email with her singing "Auld Lang Syne", and it was by far the best I'd ever heard. I never heard of Sissel, so I Googled her name and read about her, then followed the "You Tube" link to here more of her songs. I then went to ebay and bought 3 of her albums. We are lucky to have a young girl, Jackie Evancho, who also is a fantastic singer, and will sing at the inauguration in a couple weeks. BTW, you guessed right, I'm half Norwegian and half German.
For others who haven't heard Sissel, here's a link to one of her songs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5grgB-dV2o I haven't purchased my STANDARDS update yet, and hope to buy a copy at the next national Model A meet. Don't know that I'll ever get my car nice enough to be judged, but I still want to make it as correct as possible. Last edited by Tom Wesenberg; 01-04-2017 at 06:56 PM. |
