Welcome to the Ford Sidevalve Owners' Club (FSOC)
“Sidevalve: Noun: A type of internal-combustion engine in which the inlet and exhaust valves are in the cylinder block at the side of the pistons”
General Enquiries: clubsecretary@fsoc.co.uk
We are a traditional classic car owners club for owners of small Ford sidevalves built between 1932 and 1962.
We cover a vast range of vehicles from the early Ford Model Y saloons, right through to the 107E Ford Prefect (with the OHV engine from the 105E Anglia) including all vans, commercials and specials based upon the ubiquitous four cylinder side-valve engine.
Please enjoy the site!
