The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Can anyone share any information about the “birth” of this forum.

shew01 · 11-20-2020, 05:31 AM

I’ve enjoyed frequenting the Ford Barn forum, and I’ve learned a lot over the last year or so on it.

I’m a bit of a history buff. Can anyone share any history of the forum’s beginnings?

It appears that the oldest members joined sometime in 2010 or so, based on what I have seen in user profiles. Is that assumption correct?

Who were the founding members?

Who were/are the moderators?

Why did they decide to create the forum?

Was anything else available at the time?

How did they draw attention to Model A owners to grow the user base?

Is there anything else interest to tell about the forum!

By the way, thanks for all the help with my Victoria. You have helped me solve a number of issues.
