The Early Ford V-8 Club of America was originally established in San Leandro, California in 1963. Now, with over 10,000 members and 125 regional groups worldwide, the EFV8 Club is a global community dedicated to preserving and enjoying early Ford vehicles built between 1932 and 1953, all powered by the legendary flathead V-8 engine. As one of the nation's most respected classic car clubs, we welcome owners and fans of vintage Fords, Lincolns, and Mercurys - commercial vehicles and tractors, too - who share a passion for automotive history and craftsmanship.
Club activities include national and regional car shows, scenic driving tours, technical workshops, and swap meets - perfect for anyone restoring or collecting classic cars. Members also receive the bi-monthly V-8 Times magazine, filled with expert tips, historical insights, and stories from fellow classic Ford enthusiasts, making it an invaluable resource for anyone passionate about early Fords.
Whether you're restoring a vintage Ford or simply appreciate the beauty of classic automobiles, the Early Ford V-8 Club offers a friendly, knowledgeable community and access to rare parts and advice. If you're searching for a welcoming car club that celebrates the golden era of American cars, this is the place to join and fuel your passion for early Fords.
If you're not already a member, we invite you to join us and explore the works of the Early Ford V-8 Club of America.
