The Santa Barbara chapter of the Model A Ford Club of America hosts a meeting every first Wednesday of the month and presents a tour every third Saturday of the month. For locations or other information, go to modelaclubsb.weebly.com.

MAFCA SB members range in Model A experience. Some people have been members and Model A owners for decades, and some have only been Model A members for a short time. One member, Steve Penniman, got his 1929 Ford Model A Roadster Pickup just about nine months ago, which is actually how Mr. Penniman got involved with the club. In order to find his Roadster Pickup, Mr. Penniman contacted MAFCA SB, and MAFCA SB helped put Mr. Penniman in contact with sellers.

But here’s a warning to people wanting to buy a Model A. MAFCA members say that if you buy one, it is likely that you’ll end up with another. They even joked that when you first buy a Model A, you don’t realize it’s pregnant — because pretty soon, you’ll get another. It is hard to talk about the Model A without talking about its predecessor, the Model T.

Santa Barbara MAFCA chapter member, John Gilbertson, has a Model T that just turned 103 years old. (Another member joked that her favorite part about being in the club is that the cars are older than her).

Even with his love for the Model

T, Mr. Gilbertson made it clear where his loyalties lie, stating, “The Model A changed the world.”

He recently purchased a 1929 Ford Model A Fordor that he is going to restore, so he has space for his grandkids.

Through its dedication to the restoration and maintenance of Model As, MAFCA SB has cultivated a friendly and exciting community that will somehow probably outlast the Model A. email: cbeeghly@newspress.com
