The Model 'A' Ford Club of Great Britain was formed in 1987 by a group of a dozen or so enthusiasts.

It may be more appropriate to say that it was re-formed because there had been a Model 'A' Club in existence in the UK from the late 1960's. That original club was called the Rose of England Club. It was a Chapter of the parent club MAFCA but, unfortunately, it did not really grow in membership throughout the 1970's in line with the explosion of interest in vintage and classic cars and the club folded in 1982.

A hard-core of enthusiasts remained active with their cars and, under the initiative of Roger Phillipo, a fresh club now called the Model 'A' Ford Club of Great Britain was set up in 1987.

This club has flourished and currently has just under 300 members with probably around 750 Model 'A's in its many variants between them.

After a period of isolation, it has resettled as a chapter of MAFCA and is endeavouring to ensure good contacts globally with all other lovers of Model 'A's and their clubs.

The club regards its home membership as coming from England, Wales, Scotland, all of Ireland, and the Channel Islands. It is well served with used and repro parts suppliers, with highly experienced technical advice, and with a club newsletter, events, regalia, and publications.

Webmasters note: I would like to thank Neville Jones for supplying the information about the Model 'A' Ford Club of Great Britain, and if you read the Bert Thomas Story it will tell you how the Rose of England Club was formed.
