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.

Film Star Wanted (100e, of course!)
November 09, 2020
100E needed for TV documentary: A British film company is working on the second series of 'Tony Robinson's History of Britain'. As part of the show they are exploring different periods in history and one era they are looking at is the 1950s. Specifically, they are interested in a story of a man that worked in the Ford assembly line in the Dagenham factory during that time. As part of telling that particular story, they would like to film Tony Robinson with a 1950s car as he explains how the different parts were assembled. So the filming would take place in the club stores at Abingdon where the spares parts are easily available. Only the owner of the car would drive during filming. I am looking into travel costs. Timescale: filming will take place between 9th Nov and 4th Dec - more details in due course. If any of you have a 100E and would like to be involved then please email me.

Covid-19 FSOC Events update
March 24, 2020
The UK Government advised amongst other things the cancellation of all public events in response to the coronavirus crisis. On that basis, we are not listing any events scheduled before May 31.
However, we cannot yet say if any events after this date will be permitted to go ahead either. Therefore check with the organisers before going to ANY event.
Your Regional Contact may be able to update you as time goes on, meanwhile we are in unknown territory - maybe we will be reverting to the original 'horse power'.
