Lions Gate Model A Club and the new MAFCA Restorers Class The new Model A Ford Club of America’s Restorers Class was unveiled at the Northwest Regional Group’s meet at Bend, Oregon held September 3 – 8, 2013. This was the first time that this new class for the ‘Everyday A’ was given a field testing through the evaluation of twelve Model A’s.
The Restorers Class is a culmination of almost two years of planning and development by the above group of MAFCA members. Notably, three of the six individuals are members of the Lions Gate Model A Club.
The Restorers Class was born out of a perceived need for the recognition of Model A owners who maintain their vehicles to a standard that reflects original manufacture and condition but are utilized as ‘daily drivers’.
Entrants start with zero points but can be awarded up to a maximum of 400 points. This class recognizes that not every vehicle can be entirely original or a pristine show car. Evaluation of each vehicle is made in five overall areas. Based upon the vehicle’s score, awards are made to each entrant. There are four levels of achievement: Gold, Silver, Bronze and Participation. The awards at Bend, Oregon were made at the Awards Banquet, held at the conclusion of the meet. |

July 11, 2009 - LGMAC Judging Restoration Workshop was held at Dave Kettler's Model A Garage and Repair Shop in Burnaby. With the upcoming NWRM in Cottage Grove, Oregon. It was decided to work on a little pre-judging warm up with a review on "Start and Idle" along with Judging Ethics. We had a number of great questions from many of the members. A big thank you to Dave Kettler for the use of his garage and generous hospitality! 071109 |
