Model A Days 2024
As they would say in Hollywood, “That’s a wrap!” The 2024 MAFFI Model A Days held on September 20-21, 2024 in Hickory Corners, MI is in the bag. Held at the beautiful Gilmore Car Museum, this year’s event was another huge success for MAFFI and the Model A community. With a crowd approaching 1,500 and a Model A stable of cars approaching 500 there was plenty to see and do at this year’s event.
There were numerous events that will be detailed in a MAFFI press release yet to be released but I would like to point out two events that are dear to MAFCA members.
First was the 2024 Model A Hall of Fame Inductees, who joined the 38 current Hall of Fame members, and included Ronald C. Ehrenhoffer, James Murray Fahnestock, Gerald F. Morrissey and MAFCA’s own Al Stoll. Al is a 40+ year member of MAFCA and has served numerous times on the Board of Directors, serving one year as President and served on the Finance Committee for 18 years. He was elected as a MAFCA Life Member in 2012. Additionally, Al is a Senior Car Judge and has judged cars at multiple national and regional events. Al has blessed MAFCA for many years with a steady guiding hand. His service to MAFCA has been and will continue to be invaluable.
Secondly, following the Hall of Fame Inductions everyone moved over to the brick sidewalk area in front of the MAFFI museum for the ribbon cutting dedicating 100 new memorial bricks to all the MAFCA chapters that have achieved 50 yrs as a continuously operating MAFCA chapter! Congratulations to all those chapters and be aware that in the coming years as other MAFCA chapters reach this milestone, their individual bricks will be added.
Held the third Friday and Saturday in September add this event to your 2025 calendar. It is the place to be year in and year out if you love Model A cars. I’ll look for you as I believe it is a “don’t miss outing”.
