How do you go about removing the rear drums on a 28 Tudor? Snyder's sell a puller that is a 2 piece design, has anyone tried that and what was the results? The car had new wheel cylinders installed all around approx 10 years ago but they rusted up and filled with gunk from moisture in the fluid...

Guys: I am getting close to the point of paint work on the 28 Tudor, I have done a complete restoration, front to back. Virtually everything has been redone, I have tried to stay true to the way it was done originally. My question is, what type of paint was used on the car when it was built. I...

Andy: Thanks for the reply. Did you use the lower part of the 39 horn rod and graft onto the Model A rod? I made up a plate with extension that will fit into the 39 box, but the 28 horn rod will not fit thru it. Is the 39 horn rod a smaller dia than 3/8" like the Model A uses? Thanks, Ron 614...

Guys: I have a complete rebuilt engine on a portable breakin stand that came from Don Massie's estate sale after he passed away a few years ago. I am looking for an engine tuner in Central Ohio who can take it and fine tune it before installing it in the car. I have tried the Scioto Model A...

Guys: I am getting my Fathers 28 Tudor back together. I have a question about the top wood kit, I have the Les Andrews book that deals w/ this topic. I see 7 top bows that are all supposed to be the same, but one has different notched ends, six bows rest in notches on the side wood. One has...
