hello brian,
i bought my model "a" (1930 155-c town sedan) when
i was 20 years old.now, 5 1/2 years later,
i am nearing completion of a total body-off
restoration, 100% of which has been completed
by either myself or my grandfather.
personally, i don't know of anyone in the hobby
even remotely near my age, so it's nice to
know someone else is out there.

: Hello,
: For the sake of curiousity, I would like to see how many "younger" people (teens through twenties) are getting into the Model "A" Hobby.
: It would be nice to have some sort of correspondence among the future of the hobby.The national clubs are trying to spark "youth drives" to get the next generation of "A" bugs involved.Perhaps we can communicate and begin new friendships over the internet, or even arrange to meet each other at national conventions or big shows.
: Established members should make it a point to ENCOURAGE new interest in the Model "A" hobby.Promotion of the hobby is essential for the maintenance of the hobby's health.We need to have renewed membership in order to maintain our common goal:The preservation of the Model "A" so it can entertain future generations as it has entertained present and past generations.
: Next generation, identify yourself!
: Thanks!
