Model A Ford Club of NSW - Maintenance Day

Saturday 10th November - 2018

Hello fellow Model A Ford Club members,

For those members that have not attended one of our club's maintenance days at
Rob Taylor’s facility at GUILDFORD - you have no idea what you are missing out on.



In attendance on the day - fifteen Model A Fords

This morning thirty Club members gathered at 0930 for a bonding session to talk about our prestigious motor vehicles & also to fix the problems of the world, as you do.



Maintenance Day is a perfect opportunity for everyone
to get together to talk 'Model A Ford' stuff

In attendance there were fifteen Model A Fords on display. Our first tour of duty was to all gather upstairs in Rob’s conference room to talk about “How to use a multi-meter”. Kevin Sherson who is one of our very knowledgeable club members was our tutor. 



In this conference room there is hundreds of years of knowledge
regarding the ins & outs of the iconic Model A Ford Motor Vehicle.

I thoroughly enjoyed the valuable information that Rob explained to us all in a 1-hour presentation, we also talked about various other electrical components of the Model A Ford. 



Great supporting audio visuals were used during our 'how to' sessions

Looking around the room as you can see by the accompanying photographs, l was not the only one that enjoyed the presentation.



Time to get in close for a detailed look...

We then adjourned down stairs to be greeted by our 'ln-house Chef' Ron Elks who had fired up the BBQ so that we could enjoy sausage & onion rolls for leisurely lunch.

took culinary control of the day's lunch presentation.

There was so much happening, Mal Bradley was checking out a Model A Ford gear box for one of the members & Jim Haling was explaining certain aspects of the water pump clearance on the head of a Model A Ford.



We had detailed chats on subjects from water pumps to gear boxes

We are very fortunate to have Rob Taylor allow us to use his premises for these occasions.



We are very fortunate to have Rob Taylor allow us to
use his premises for these occasions. Thanks Rob.

Thanks again Rob, as Club members we really appreciate your generosity once again.

Cheers for now.
