Become A Member

The Flat-Spot has seen amazing growth and many of our members have said they would not have reached their engine goals if not for The Flat-Spot community. We understand that Facebook is not forever. Our group’s success has signaled us to the fact that we need to move beyond Facebook to establish a network of members, friends and teachers. Most of all we need your help to expand The Flat-Spot in your home town. Your membership in our group allows us the resources to reach beyond Facebook and become a national group. A group of committed enthusiasts devoted to the continuation and preservation of stock and custom Flathead Fords for a new generation to enjoy.

Note: This part of the membership is being sunset in 2025 due to a lack of dealer interest and willingness to offer reasonable or useful discounts. We have greatly expanded the Archive since starting membership and feel providing you more access to technical information should be our focus moving forward.

It’s simple. Your $50 gets you a one year membership to the Flat-Spot which includes a number of benefits such as:

1. A custom stamped (with your member number) vintage styled firewall data tag. Outfit your hot rod and make your buddies jealous… There is also space for you to include your engine’s data.

2. A Flat-Spot Premium Membership packet: This packet is designed to let you know a little more about what we are doing with your contribution. It will include 2 Flat-Spot decals for your tool box or side window and a Free Gift.

3. Discounts on Flat-Spot Products. A 12% discount on most Flat-Spot gift shop products and services is just the start. 

4. Full Access To A Growing Digital Archive. One of the coolest new benefits to being a Premium Member is full access to a digital archive of vintage Ford text, manuals, out of print books, and service bulletins. We kicked off the archive in early 2020 and are currently taking donations of print to add to the archive. This means you will have access to anything in our information archive 24 hours a day. This is in hopes that it will help you research your problems and get you back up and running faster.

5. Group Newsletter: We will be adding Premium Members to a monthly email list. The email is where you’re going to see whats new and also where many of our top discount dealers are going to feature monthly specials.
