Plain Ol' As

Who are we?
     The Plain Ol' As are a group of ncie folks involved in the preservation and enjoyment
of the Ford Model A automobile. Membership offers opportunities for you to learn how to
keep your vehicle in good working order, gives you an excuse to get it out on the road, and
you can always just hang around with other people silly enough to own these things!

     For more info about the Plain Ol' As, click on the "About Us" link. You can also visit our Activities page to get an idea of the some the things we like to do. We're working on getting our Gallery stocked with photos of some of our members and (perhaps more importantly!) their cars.

     We're glad you stopped by ... slide behind the wheel and take our website for a spin!

This Month in History
April 7, 1947 Henry Ford recalled
     On the 7th of this month in 1947, Henry Ford, the founder of Ford Motor Company, which developed the first affordable, mass-produced car--the Model T--and also helped pioneer assembly-line manufacturing, died at his estate in Dearborn, Michigan, at the age of 83. What you may not have known is that the Ford Motor Company was actually his third auto company - the first two had failed.
