I agree a local club can be a big help if you're lucky enough to have one handy. Even without a club, you might find some nearby T folks to help out. But in many places you have to rely on MTFCA, Ford Barn, and Facebook. There may be Model T people in your area, but that doesn't mean they're active. A month ago we had a Model T tour here, with cars from Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, and Washington. It was free, with no registration fee. Of approximately a dozen Model T owners I know about locally, I was the only one who turned out for it.
