Classique interiors has the short grain but can only get it in 60" wide. The long grain comes in 65" Im guessing the 60" is going to not be wide enough for a tudor sedan. I dont have the car back yet to measure, anyone know the width of material you need? Thanks so much.

Back when I had my 1929 sedan and my 1930 sedan, They had different types of top material. The 29 had the long grain and had more gloss then the 30 that had I guess short grain. All I can find is the long grain and I dont like that. I contacted classique and he said that his short grain material...

1930 thanks.

My top material from labarron Bonney looks too short side to side in the back, it measures 62 1/2 wide. Plenty of material front to back and side to side in the front. In my videos they have 2 feet extra all around the vehicle. Anyone have a new Tudor top material they can lay down and measure...

My Dad was a mechanic for most of his life, and took apart an engine a guy had always used stp in. When removing the crankshaft to build a stroker engine for the guy, he had a hard time holding onto it because it was so slippery from the additive. He has used it every since as have I. We rebuilt...
