While it is always subject to being accepted by OCF, my plans are to take my 1909 Tourabout and 1914 Ford Salesman's car.

That page still has the 2023 OCF information, not 2024.

Oops, sorry for posting the 2023 link.

The easiest thing to do is just give them a call or go here. https://www.thehenryford.org/participants

Is that the one where a lady driving was chauffeuring me??


As far as contacting them, usually they do not start accepting applications for the event until June because of prior scheduled events.

I plan on being there again this year. I will be over by the pond that has the covered bridge by it.

Just FYI, on June 1, the registration has opened for the 2024 Old Car Festival. Here is the link for it:

I registered two vehicles separately on the evening of June 1st, and I received two confirmations back today saying both vehicles were accepted. Kudos to the volunteer event staff for already sending the acceptance letters back to us so soon!

I hope to see everyone there in about 94 days. Look for me around, -or in one of these two vehicles this year....

Post up some pix of what you will be bringing so we can know what or who to look for!!

(Generally there is a BUNCH of Model-As over by the pond each year!!! )

Here is the ride. will look slightly different this year. Same color just new tires and headlights.

Yes the 'Spare' has a bluewall, that will be changing this weekend. I still have 3 more tires to mount to the rims...........After I dismount the old ones.....

FYI, I don't know if you noticed in that video, but that man standing just in front of the camera when we came past was Randy Ema, the most knowledgeable and renown Duesenberg restorer from California. He restores or works on all of Leno's Duesies.

Wow. Can someone post the link to that video?

A couple of timestamps;

At 3:15 That is Randy and his wife.

At 3:47 That is the actor Marty Bufalini's Firetruck with his daughter driving.

At 6:20 That is me in my '14 with Missie driving. The turquoise Depot Hack following us is my '26 that fellow Fordbarner Abbie Prince is driving.

Lots of other Fordbarners in there too.
