The Forties Limited car club of Orange County is celebrating over 40 years of “Dedication to the Preservation and Maintenance of Forty Ford Motor Cars”. They have been presenting “Forty Ford Day” for 33 years! On the morning of June 28 , over 150 Forty Fords, of every model you can imagine, started gathering at La Palma Park in Anaheim, CA. Club members guided the hot rods into position with Forties on one side of the park and the rest of the cars on the other side. Along with the Forties, all pre-’68 makes and models were welcome. The total car count was over 300. Goody Bags were given to the first 250 participants and they included an event T-shirt. For those early risers, the club had a booth of coffee, baked goodies and at lunch they have a great hot dog & hamburger barbeque. The Forties came from as far away as Oregon. The exhibit of 15-20 Whizzer motorbikes was very interesting. Forties Limited proudly supports Children’s Hospital of Orange County and donates money from the 50/50, the Bake Sale and Barbeque. Thanks for the Show!
