Re: 60 th Anniversary Diamond Jubilee Celebration
69a, I don't know about events, but I do know that the EFV8 times magazine itself is well worth the $35/year ......

Re: 60 th Anniversary Diamond Jubilee Celebration
Concourse day, in this case June 15th, when the entered vehicles are judged, is effectively open to the public.

Re: 60 th Anniversary Diamond Jubilee Celebration
Just curious why you would not want to join the V-8 Club and receive the magazine? You don't need to go to meetings or do anything else other that wait for the mailman to bring you the magazine. There are other benefits like being able to attend all the events at meets and the magazine has sources of parts and technical advice for your car. There is also the advantage of receiving the magazine on-line.

Re: 60 th Anniversary Diamond Jubilee Celebration
The swap meet would be open to the public to walk through and make purchases, but normally you must be a registered member of the V8 Club to rent a space in the swap meet and to sell.
The public could also walk the hotel parking lots to view the vehicles any day during the meet in addition to the day of concourse. However, there are many vehicles that remain in trailers during these meets, only to be seen during the day of concourse, and then put back in their trailers.

Re: 60 th Anniversary Diamond Jubilee Celebration
Tom,
And you don't even have to wait for the mailman as membership includes both a hard copy and a digital copy of the magazine. |

Re: 60 th Anniversary Diamond Jubilee Celebration
To answer guy1unico's question, the Headquarters Hotel for the 2023 Grand Nationals is the Double Tree by Hilton, located on Ford Road, next to M-39, the Southfield Free-way.

Re: 60 th Anniversary Diamond Jubilee Celebration
If you don't drive, you don't get the "I Drove" license tab. I have 2 different ones on my 1949 Ford front license. 2008 and 2018.

Re: 60 th Anniversary Diamond Jubilee Celebration
In 2013, I was on a bucket list check off -- drove to Iowa, got on the California Zephyr and enjoyed our time traveling west and back.
I was also documenting the travels of the East Coast caravan on the EFV-8C web site Forum, as supplied to me by the leader of the caravan. Back to the roots -- 2013 Lake Tahoe. Great time, beautiful scenery with great Early Ford V-8 members. Didn't say I got a license tab for driving to Iowa and riding Amtrak. I didn't even get my Junior Amtrak Engineer pin. But they did do a good job of keeping your vehicle safe in a fenced in area. Last edited by nelsb01; 01-07-2023 at 11:47 PM. |

Re: 60 th Anniversary Diamond Jubilee Celebration
There wasn't a license tab for driving to Iowa? Like John, I have a 2013 tab on my '50 Convertible. Just didn't drive quite as many miles as John did.
