Default 2024 EFV-8 Central National Meet Auburn Indiana

The Early Ford V-8 Club of America is holding their 2024 Central National Meet at Auburn, Indiana this June. Always great to visit Auburn with its numerous excellent museums. Here are some photos of the 2011 Central National Meet at Auburn, my first club event.
Looking forward to seeing my Early Ford Friends at Auburn.

Not bringing an old Ford, but I am registered for the meet. Always a great and fun place to visit and see V-8 friends that I don't normally see from other parts of the US. Also anxious to see the new additions to the museum.

Tony, I was there in 2011 as well. Also my first meet. I didn't know anyone. The show field was great with lots of cars.

I think these are the meets in order that I've attended:

Auburn
Springfield
Gettysburg
Chantilly
Dearborn
Auburn
Franklin
Dearborn

The Chantilly meet had some great touring.

That Coupe belongs to Doug Weinel from Colorado. Obviously drew more attention than my '36 Roadster parked next to it.

Ken's 1936 Roadster is beautiful. He was nice enough to let me and Grant Fleming use it on the Route 66 Tour during the 2014 Springfield Central National Meet when we were unable to get our cars to the meet. Thanks Ken.

I made a side trip to the museum last year on my way up to the Grand National this past June, a lot has changed and even more has grown in Auburn at the exit area where the hotels are as well as lots of growth to the EFV8 museum. I was amazed at the growth!!! Well worth the trip for the show this June IMO.

I was there in '09, '11 '19, and plan to be there this time. Not sure what I will bring. Probably my original '35 5 window coupe!

Folks,
Looking forward to the Auburn show this June. Yep the plan is to drag the ragged ol truck along too. The plan is to travel with John and Cathy hauling their prized 42 Ford. It will be the first time for the 42 to be at one of the Early V8 meets. Make sure you get a chance to visit with John about his Fords. He is a walking Ford numbers guy!






Regards,
Chris and Cheryl
