  I will not be able to go to any of the shows/meets this year. When will I be able to purchase a 1937 Ford Anniversary Tab?

  If any tabs are left, they will be available for purchase after the three National Meets. The last one is the Western National Meet September 12-14. The quantity available depends on the number of '37 Fords that are shown at the meets.

37 Coupe    -- 06-27-2012 @ 8:57 AM
  I did not take my 37 Ford to the Hiawassee meet but I too was hoping to buy or at least see one of the 37 Ford license plate toppers. I bought one of the unique 37 Ford shaped Rotunda gear shift knob but none of the club members selling at the hotel knew anything about the toppers. Not as many 37 Fords at the meet as I expected for the 75th anniversary year mayby 20 total and this includes two or three pickups a woody wagon. Nice original 37 roadster was parked away from concourse and I wondered if it was the one Dennis Carpenter recently bought. Last year the 36 license toppers quickly sold out I wonder why more are not made? Seems to be more demand than supply and would be a good fundraiser for the club or any of the regional groups. An odd 37 coupe ,at least to me was displayed in the swap meet area,it was partially restored and beautifully painted in Vinyard green,I think that was the color. What was odd to me was that even though it was just the body on a correctly restored chassis it had holes along the upper body belt that appeared to be for moulding strips like in the same position as a 38 or a 39 body. I was surprised such a correctly and beautifull body did not have this corrected before the professional paint job was applied and I could never get a correct answer even from the fellow who was supposedly the restorer not the owner,nor an answer as to its place in the swap meet,actually for sale,price etc. Couple guys tried to tell me that stainless moulding was offered in late 37 and I moved on.
