    What is it that YOU love about your car.

    I love that my tudor was Grandpas first car. My uncle Tom drove it throughout high school and collage. My Daddy drove it around in the 80's then I received it in 2008. I love that it has been in the family since the early 40's and will continue to be in the family for the next 40's!

I will try the eccentric nut in the morning and get back to yall. Also I noticed that when rotating the steering shaft from stop to stop it turns...

    Hey there ADNC!! I hope you keep us updated on your Tudor. I like following along with folks during there revival of these cars. I inherited my 1930 Tudor from my Grandfather as well and it has been a great experience going through it. I know you will share the same joy with your 31! Drew

    Pre-bent Tudor rain gutters

    Re: Tudor rain gutters I have not seen these. I will have to look at my new catalog! I will say if they are a quality product i would buy them. It is a big PITA to bend and install them all the while making them look right and not mangled.

I though I was gonna have to set aside a whole day to install these puppies and actually it took about 1/2 hour. I am happy and satisfied. I enjoy reading...
