Matt, glad to see you want to see some activity!
I tried to get some things going last year. We had a few meets, but no real events were planned
What would all of you new guys like to do?
I want input and hope you all will make the club great!

'Afternoon Illinois! There's a parts swap at the Kane County Fairgrounds on Feb 21, its put on by the Model A (Ford) Restorers Club. Mostly early stuff like T's, A's, & V8's, mostly indoors, plus good food to boot!

I've got some A motors & stuff I might bring to sell in order to buy a distributor, carb, U-joints, carrier, oil bath air cleaner, hub caps for my 69 F250 300 I-6.

i wouldn't mind to see some car show events or drag racing or mud bogging events but what ever anyone can make it to or find available would be great. i go mud bogging up in northern Wisconsin on certain holidays I've been to car shows in Wisconsin and in Chicago but soon i plan on making it to the Chicago auto show this year! too bad i can't work there this year.

Say Ill., check the poll. Your chance to maybe get some help along I-70 moving stuff. UPDATE: Due to unforeseen expenses, I can no longer meet the asking price for the car I was going to buy. Trip has been canceled.
