President’s Message – Spring 2009 by Carl Pate, EFR 91
It never ceases to amaze me how fast time flies by … Since it gets faster
as we get older, I cannot imagine how our 100 year old cars must feel.
Since the last news letter in the winter 2008, the Early Ford Registry has
held our election for board member seats. An email was sent on January
4, 2009 to all members, that have email, advising them of the election
results.
John Biggs England Incumbent
Richard DeCarli California New
Paul Schaefer Ohio Incumbent
The Board then elected the following Officers for 2009:
President: Carlton Pate (Carl)
Vice President: Paul Schaefer
Secretary-Treasurer: Dave Dunlavy
During a recent conversation, Dave and I
decided that since there is so much on the web
site, many members may not be aware of the
information that is available. To correct the
problem, we will include in future newsletters
articles about the website to highlight various
information aspects and features.
Let‟s briefly reflect back on 2008 … The EFR
organization held meetings and Get-togethers
at the Chickasha flea market, New London to
New Brighton Run and the Hershey flea
market and antique car show. Numerous
changes and improvements were made to the
EFR website, Electronic users forum, addition
of a monthly Member Announcements (mass
email to members with email access), creation
of an organization brochure and a
membership level worldwide that reached to a
new high. (continued on page 2)

President’s Message – Spring 2009 continued from page 1
With the start of a new year, we need to plan for the future and look for new ways to
support all members and the organization goals. We need to make sure that we continue
our effort to find and protect historical document and items … As Board Member John
Biggs stated, we need to encourage club members and early Ford owners to take extra
efforts to:
Have all of the information that we exchange between members collated into a living
electronic document that members can reference
Create a list of (original and replacement) parts that are available from all sources
Create a list of casting patterns that are available for loaning (include owner and contact
information)
Create videos on maintenance and operation of early Ford cars
Collect parts drawings for early Ford cars
Encourage interest and support from the Ford Motor Company in these historic vehicles
and the company heritage.
As one member told me a year ago, he decided to loan me all of his period pictures and
post cards so that the images would be shared with others and protected. John‟s concern
was that at home, a fire, water or storm could destroy the items and they would be lost to
future generations. As collectors we have a responsibility to make sure that historical items
are not lost. With your help our organization can help make sure that does not happen.
After the completion of my book, I received new digital information on a disk with the
comment “Please use @ your discretion for EFR… Thanks D…”. I have over the past few
weeks began a process of changing the format and layout of the items so that they can be
easily usable by others. When the changes are completed, I will look for ways to include
the new information on the EFR organization website. I further extend the same offer to
other members – share and protect the information you have collected.
Since the real challenge is participation, we need your ideas, help and participation. If you
would like to be involved, please contact me by email ([email protected]) or phone
(860-633-2052). Please make an effort to get involved …
Another goal of the EFR organization is to increase and support the communication
between owners and those interested in early Ford cars. By promotion, research and the
gathering of information and documents, the true contribution that Ford cars made to the
development of transportation in the world will be realized. It is easy to be a part of this
unique opportunity … I encourage you to become more active and make a difference.

Secretary-Treasurer’s Report Dave Dunlavy, EFR41
As you have read, we have the election completed.
I‟d like to thank all those who voted. We had an
excellent response with the election and dues
collection. I‟ll be making some changes to the “Join
Now” web page to make it easier to understand that
current members can pay their annual dues on that
page via PayPal. The PayPal option works very
well for the group and is easy for you to use.
We will be making some other important changes
in the web pages which you can read about in an
article in this newsletter.
New EFR caps and shirts have been ordered. They
may be purchased at the get-togethers and on-line
(in a few weeks).
We welcome the new members that are signing up.
A special article in this newsletter gives details of
how to take advantage of the web page features.
I look forward to seeing you at Chickasha. Stay
safe during the touring season.

Model N EFR Restoration Project Report by Jerry Van Ooteghem, EFR 95
As it does for many of us, the winter
season has really slowed down
progress on the Model N project.
Since our last update, Tim & Connie
Morsher have sent in a beautiful
reproduction battery box, copied from
an original. Tim and Connie have
been great supporters of our project as
have many others.
Norm Bolz and I have also been busy refining some
details of the seat, (previously donated by Dan
Mari). Since the seat and body were from different
sources, there was a slight fit-up problem. It became
obvious that the easiest solution was to make a new
base for the seat buckets. A little sawing, gluing and routing and we have a new seat base
that agrees with the dimensions of the body. I don't believe the body or seats were made
wrong to begin with. As has been documented, the seats varied some in width over the
production of the N. I think we
just had body & seat possibly
based on different eras of N
production.
We are really looking forward to
better weather that would allow
us to bring the body outside for
sanding, sealing and priming.
Both Norm's and my indoor areas
are full of "stuff" and not
conducive to body work. Even
Model N sized bodies. Such is
the plight of a collector.

We are still in need of an NRS wishbone and a steering pitman arm. Anybody? And , of
course, we could always use cash donations for the purchase of paint and other parts &
supplies.
Thanks for the continued support of the Early Ford Registry and its members!

A note from the Secretary regarding donation tax receipts: If you made a donation of
money or parts in 2008, and have not received your receipt from the registry yet, please
contact me by phone (563.387.3736) or email ([email protected]). The letter receipt for
money will specify the amount of money donated. However, the letter receipt for donation
of parts, describes the parts but does not assign a value to the parts per IRS regulations.
Contact your CPA for further explanations, if necessary.
Continued Improvements in Members Pictures Web Area Weber McSwiggen, EFR00
As you should know, we have literally thousands of pictures of cars and car parts
submitted by members on the Members Photos webpage. About a year ago, we started to
build an index or matrix so you can find a picture of a specific area in which you have
interest. We are incorporating a couple of ideas to make the matrix more useful. You may
click on any photo and “biggie size” it. This is especially useful if you want to print it to
take to the shop to refer to while working your car. You can click the “more” link to be
directed to more photos from the same member.
We have received a few comments about how useful the pictures are. Now, plans are to
spend more effort getting the task finished. There are two main time consuming elements
in the project. First is cataloging the pictures. The second phase is to “code” the photos
into the matrix. The reason we‟re mentioning this is, if you have any comments or
suggestions about the project, we would like to hear what you have to say. Email
[email protected] or phone Dave (563.387.3736).

What a ride! By Richard Gould, EFR 107
As I sit in front of a warm fireplace, all quiet and
cozy with my wife, 5 house cats and a rescue
Chihuahua, I think back to the adventure that took
place last week. How was it that I, a Model T
mechanic of dubious repute, came to acquire one
of the most impressive two cylinder Fords on the
planet?
It seems like only yesterday I read Rob Heyen‟s
post that RM was auctioning a 1905 Model F
Ford in Scottsdale on January 16. Well, I
thought, Scottsdale is within driving distance. Just maybe I can scrape up enough money to
place a bid. After sniffing around, I discovered the car belonged to Robert Grooters and
many detailed pictures of the car were posted on the website under the caption Members
Photos. After examining the photos, and speaking with Robert, I made arrangements to
borrow a chunk of money from my saintly mother and badger the credit union into
increasing my line of credit. So far so good.
Rob Heyen, who had expressed an interest in the car, contacted me by phone and, after
discussing the pros and cons, decided against bidding. I spoke with Dave Dunlavy who
stated he knew of no other EFR member interested in the car and encouraged me to bid
away, but warned the car could go as high at $150,000 or $200,000 considering the
upscale venue and the possibility of overseas bidders. Not exactly words I wanted to hear.
Things were really looking up until I learned a friend of mine had an interest in the car. I
had been to a Kruse Auction a few years back and had seen him in action. He walked
away with most of the items he bid on.
At that point, I believed my chances of acquiring the Model F were slim and none. Never
the less, I was all packed and ready to go with a wallet full of cashiers checks. So I figured,
“What the hell, give „er a shot.”
Early morning of the 14th, I headed out of town in my trusty truck with my dog in the
passenger seat towing my enclosed car trailer behind me just in case I got lucky.
In truth, I had pretty much given up on the F, but Gooding & Co. was auctioning a 1909
Sears the following day in Scottsdale and I figured my chances were pretty good on that
one.
I got as far as Barstow and spent the night in a flea infested Motel, just across the street
from a well lit grocery store. Adequate but hardly the Hilton. (continued on page 7)

What a ride! (continued from page 6)
I made it into Needles about mid morning the next
day to purchase gas. It was then I discovered my
ATM card was lost. A diligent search turned up
nada and I phoned the bank to cancel the card. No
big deal really, since I brought a wad of cash to see
me through the week.
On leaving Needles, I stopped before entering an
ancient wooden and concrete underpass. The road
was so narrow only one car could pass through at a
time. Drivers were lined up on each side, taking
their turns, one side then the other. When it was my turn, I entered the underpass. Then I
heard the most God awful noise. I looked around and then bolted from the truck leaving
the door wide open. To my horror, I discovered the trailer was too high for the underpass
and 6"of the top was sheared off a full three feet back from the front. It looked like a
tornado hit it.
I raced back to my truck to shut the door fearing my dog would make his escape and found
him hovering on the floorboards below the passenger seat.
About two minutes after the accident, an employee of the collision repair shop half a block
from the underpass ran up to me wanting to know if I needed a tow and storage for my
damaged trailer. Someone else informed me that about two RVs a week suffer the same
fate as my trailer trying to pass through that aged structure. I bet that collision place has a
lookout just waiting for unsuspecting travelers.
Well, to make a long story short, the trailer was totaled and I traded the remains for what
would have been the cost of storage had I left it there.
Back to the story.
I decided to soldier on without the trailer knowing that any auction I won would have to be
shipped by common carrier to my place in Folsom. Pricey but not outrageous.
I rolled into Blythe about 1:30 PM. I had been carefully watching my poor dog since the
accident and noticed he was not acting his usual self. At that time I was beginning to have
doubts about continuing. After mulling it over, I decided the time had come to throw in
the towel and scurry back home. After lunching on a stale hot dog, I headed west.
The trek home took a full day and a half, stopping in Sylmar to spend a night on a lumpy
mattress. (continued on page 8)

What a ride! (continued from page 7)
When I arrived home, I settled in and checked my
email. It was then I discovered a message from my
friend stating he decided against bidding on the
Model F after all.
Holy Cow, I didn‟t know what to think. Here I
was, 700 miles from Scottsdale and my most feared
competition had dropped out of the running. Not
knowing how to proceed, I called RM, told them
my tale of woe, and begged to be allowed to bid
over the phone. The nice lady said “Yes”, so long I
could fax them a completed application with a valid credit card number. She said I better
hurry up, though, because lot #160 was on the block now and the Model F, lot #177, was
coming up soon.
It was then I discovered my Fax machine was on the blink. So I raced to my neighbor‟s
house, registration in hand, pleading to use his fax. He graciously obliged and I returned
home to await a call from RM when the F came on the block.
I waited, waited and waited some more. After about an hour and a half, I figured my
application had not been processed in time to bid and emailed my friend, stating my
registration was denied and that I would not be bidding. I wondered whether he was the
high bidder. So close yet so far away.
About 5 minutes after sending the message, I got a call from RM stating the Model F
would be coming up in about 10 minutes and asking if I was prepared to bid. “Hell yes”
was my reply. At this point I was about ready to explode. I realized I emailed my friend
too soon and had opened the door to a bidding war. I literally saw the car slipping through
my fingers.
As soon as I got off the phone with RM, I
frantically dialed my friend‟s number to tell him I
was gong to bid after all, and to please ignore my
previous email. He wasn‟t there, so I had him
paged. Luckily for me, he returned the call and I
explained the premature email. He must have
heard the desperation in my voice. We talked about
how much we were willing to bid and he agreed
not to bid against me. What a guy! (continued on page 9)

What a ride! (continued from page 8)
Not two minutes after I hung up, I got the call from
RM and the bidding got under way. Bidding
stalled at $40,000 and I thought I would get the car
at a real bargain. But the auctioneer exhorted the
crowd for 5 minutes stating what a gem it was and
so on and so forth. Bidding began again and rose
to $80,000. I bid $85,000. After three long calls,
the hammer went down and I became the proud
new owner of Grooter‟s Model F Ford. My friend
called and congratulated me. I was so happy I
cried.
The car was delivered on the 21st and is now resting peacefully in my garage happily
dripping oil from the lifter guides.
Only two other items to report. One, the dog came alive when he returned home and
began herding the cats. Two, that auctioneer will never be welcome in my home.
All I can say is “What a ride!”
