Re: Model T&A era only Car Show in CT
Its different each year. Weve had as few as 4 or 5 vendors and as many as 15, but remember, they are all only Model A & Model T parts (1931 & older) only, so theres no searching through muscle car & post war parts if youre looking for model A & T parts.
Hope to see you there! Dan Beardsley |

I sure hope to make it there this year. Last year was a medical mess, and I am hoping for a better year.

Re: Model T&A era only Car Show in CT
Wow! A T&A era only car show and swap meet. I haven't been to one of them since the '60s. Around my area I don't go to shows because they are always about 99% muscle and rod junk.

Re: Model T&A era only Car Show in CT
This is a great event, really feels like a 1960's era event. I drag a trunk load of parts over every year, and always find something to take home. If you don't plan to drive your A or T over bring some parts! Thanks to the Beardsley family for hosting this event. Bob

I was at Dan's place Saturday for a gathering of the Fairfield County A's. Dan's love and passion for Model A's was obvious. We are lucky to have him involved in the hobby.

Re: Model T&A era only Car Show in CT
When I go through my parts before a swap meet I sometimes leave stuff home thinking it is junk and nobody will want it. If you are going through your stuff and have a useless 28-29 gas tank with a good firewall section please bring it along, or send me a PM with a photo. Thanks again to the Beardsley family for having this event. Bob

Re: Model T&A era only Car Show in CT
Dan,
Do you have a flier for the show? I have been talking up this event a lot lately, and it would be nice to have a piece of paper to hand people that had all the information. I would just print a bunch of them and keep then in my car for when I need them. Thanks, Ken

Re: Model T&A era only Car Show in CT
This was a great show last year! I won't be able to make it this year as I'll be travelling, but for those that are in the area and haven't been to the show, I took a lot of pictures last year. I was in a marketing class and we needed to design a website, so I played around and posted them here:
http://fordsladya.weebly.com/ For those of you that can attend, enjoy it! There were a lot of great cars! |

Re: Model T&A era only Car Show in CT
The weather forecast currently shows partly sunny for Saturday morning, then 50% chance of rain later in the day. If this holds true, the show will go on!
I will post again Saturday morning around 7am once I review the weather. Hope to see you all there. |

Re: Model T&A era only Car Show in CT
Looking forward to it. The last forecast I saw showed clouds after noon, but no rain until about 7:00 in the evening.
I'm not worried about a little rain anyway. I put a new roof on two years ago, and I now drive in all kinds of weather. Ken

Riding over with a friend in his pickup truck, hope there is a good swap meet. Bob

Re: Model T&A era only Car Show in CT
Great model T & A show at the cider Mill this year. More vendors came and show cars, the weather was great and a good time was had by all. Thanks to the Beardsley family.

Re: Model T&A era only Car Show in CT
What a great day at the Beardsley Cider Mill. We left Bridgehampton NY at 5:30 AM and headed to Port Jefferson ( about 48 miles) to catch the 7:00 Ferry that travels across Long Island Sound to Bridgeport CT (An hour and 15 minute trip). Once on shore in CT drove the short trip (about 25 miles to Shelton) and arrived at the Beardsley Cider Mill event hosted by Dan Beardsley and arrived at about 9:10 AM. What a great day re-connecting with the regular attendees and meeting some new people also. Great weather, great cars, great location and in all not a bad trip. After catching the 3:30 Ferry Boat in Bridgeport and sailing to Port Jefferson we arrived home at 6:30 PM after driving through the Long Island Traffic and stopping at 95% of the traffic lights that somehow knew the I was approaching and turned RED. Dan , I say a big Thank You and vow to return again next year. Model A and T folk are great people. They are what America is all about. Steve Halsey. PS stop by the Cider Mill this fall and sample their produce. Pies. apples etc.
