I am a member of the Upstate of South Carolina #163. HRP

HotRodPrimer ....................
I have been a member, since almost the beginning. It started in California, as a local club, and they advertised in HEMMINGS for new members, nationwide. I joined in about 1964, I believe.
I am now a member of the "Birth Place of Speed" Chapter in Daytona Beach, Florida.

I've thought about joining lately. I always heard stories about how the group hated hot rodders. Seems that might be changing somewhat in regards to the traditional hot rods. Can't blame them though, as I hate all the big wheels and billet everything myself...

I don't know about all the other groups but the Upstate of South Carolina guys are pretty cool about hot rods,,yeah,,there are still a few older guys that don't like them with chevy engines but if it looks pretty much stock they seem to except it as the ever changing times. HRP

Joined the club with my first 1934 Ford in 1972. A 38 year old V8 Ford
seemed older in 1972 than a 38 year old 1972 Torino does now. (Which
is what I was driving when I bought the 34 Ford.)

I joined in 06?, and have met some real cool old time hot rodders that still run and build hot rods, along with some real nice stock and restored fords in the club, and have met many others in other RGs.

a couple years earlier at a GGs show while standing in line at a EFV8CA booth,(not RG # 32 that i am in) i ended up leaving the line because they were telling one guy his stock looking ford had the wrong wheels and a hot rodded flathead in it.

Thanks cecil,i will get on that asap,looking forwad to getting those ford magazines.

Frank The Plumber · 08-03-2010, 10:48 AM

I am not a member. I am looking into joining Group # 8. I want to make sure the club approves of my truck. A lot of clubs frown on modifieds, I respect that, I've been in that situation before, I wouldn't blame a club for not wanting non stock vehicles in the ranks. That can make an uncomfortable fit. I learned not to try to force a fit, it's up to the current members.
I hope to introduce them to her and see if they like her, she's a little noisy but she grows on you.

TJ · 08-05-2010, 10:49 AM

I joined in 1974 when my wife worked for Lorin Sorensen. At that time I had a 29 Model A roadster pickup with a warmed up "B" motor and 34 trans( I was already half way to a V-8). Bought as 33 sedan right after I joined. I served 9 years on the V-8 Club Board of Directors and belong to R.G. #27 and R.G. #1. It's the best car club on the planet and you make many friends for life. I'm also a member of the V-8 Foundation
I noticed a couple of people on here are a little reluctant to join because they don't have a stock vehicle. It doesn't make any difference if you have a stock Ford , a modified Ford, or no car at all. As long as you have the interest in 32-53 Fords you can belong to the club. Over the years a lot has changed and when you go to a national meet you see many more cars that fit into the "touring class". V-8ers like to have fun and use their cars. Many more cars are now driven to national meets than in the past. In fact in the beginning days of the club the purpose was driving to a national meet and then cleaning up the car for the concourse.
I encourage anyone with the interest in the 32-53 Fords to join this club. The V-8 Times magazine is worth the price of admission.

Hi Ken. Thanks. The worst part is I feel I am more obsessed than ever and yet all my Fords are 3 hours away, with only my 2 Chevys in the garage to tinker with!

Going well. My cousin has just about gotten the cabriolet body just about ready to go on the '37 chassis. My "rebuilt '41" turned out to be a decades old rebuilt '45. So we bought a running "'40" which turned out to be a '38. Kinda bummed about that because I really wanted a '41. But it runs well and in the end as long as it is a 24 stud, it won't really matter to anyone but me. We bought another body for the former cabriolet frame, but until we have it home, I'm not saying much more than that.

I joined the Southern Ontario RG #149 in 2002, when I was 3 years into a 10 year restoration. and the National Club 3 years later. The EFV8Times magazine is top quality. I have not met any members personally, but have phone talked and corresponded through the internet with many.
I have increasing felt that I would not be able to participate in a National Meet, due to the mods that are a part of my restoration. TJ's reply has led me to believe that is now not the case. I would like to make it to a National meet, but only if I drive. Hope to meet you in the future, Byron.

Byron, get it ready for Auburn, Indiana in August 2011. It's the Central National Meet and you will have a great time. Actually even if you don't get it running in time come down anyway. Once you come to a meet it will motivate you even more to finish your Ford. We are planning on coming to Auburn from California. It's a fun place (we were there in 2009) and you will have plenty to see and do while you are there.

Local older members are a good source for this info because like me they have kept the V8 Times, I have most from 1972 up.

Since finishing in late 2006, I've driven her to two Regional shows - the 2009 Auburn,IN Central Regional meet and the 2010 Charlotte, NC Eastern Meet. I belong to the Greater Pittsburgh Group #48 also. The Early V8 Club accepts modified '32 to '53 Fords at Meets and have two modified classes (Touring, and Touring A) that accept cars that have engine and drivetrain modifications in varying amounts. (Chevy engines are frowned upon, however.) These are not 'fully judged' classes but have classifications (years groups, closed, open, etc.) and are voted on by a team of members. Awards are also given in these classes. If your modified car doesn't meet the qualifications for these groups then you can still put your car, tractor, etc. in the "Display" class.
I'm going back to the Central Auburn Meet again this year - late August. Hope to have my '40 Convert finished in time for the drive from Pgh to Auburn. The Early Ford V8 Foundation and Museum (main building not built yet) is located there. Much to do, places to go, and great comradarie. Hope to see you there. And for those not a member of the Foundation, consider joining with a contribution -- help perpetuate the legend.

Joined in 1979. Great Club. Great Club Magazine. Great People.

Suggest anyone interested in 32-53 Fords to join.

Notice I said "interested" not necessarily "own" a vehicle.

Try the Club for one year. What do you have to loose. The magazine itself is worth the price of membership.

The magazine alone is well worth the cost of membership. Getting to see all the old Ford vehicles and meet their owners at the National Meets is also awesome to me.
