    We pulled this '29 Tudor out of a shed in Columbus, NE Thursday...remembered seeing the car when I was in high school in '69.

    After unloading the '29...driving 50 miles in rain didn't knock off much dirt.

    Now to keep it, sell or trade the car...you can probably guess my wife's opinion.

    It's still surprising every time one of these finds is posted. There still must be cars stashed away in garages and barns across the country. Congrats and good luck on the build. The FOGGER

    I love hot rods but that thing is just too nice to cut up. But if I kept it I know what I would do.

    I suppose I could yank the banger out of my coupe & drop it in the Tudor...that would "force" me to finally get a V-8 in my '31 I been thinkin' about..

    Wow, any Model A Tudor with dual sidemounts and accessory luggage trunk is a rarity and quite refreshing to see after all the groundcrawlers being built these days.

    You should show her the pics of the '40 you helped me drag home the week before. Then walk her out to see your new '29. Maybe that'd help change her mind.
