As 1929 was the largest production year, and the Tudor easily the most popular (that most folk could afford anyway) model, my question is - how many 'Barners' own 1929 Tudors? I will make it ONE. Please, if you own one, add yours to the total and post it. Should be interesting....


Thanks!
 
I purchased my 29 late Sept 2017. Frame off restoration done in the mid 90s. PO put less than 500 miles on it. Besides two front seats, never installed an interior. Decent runner on rebuilt inserted engine, but left lots to do. No light switch or any other wiring, no shocks,etc. Still not finished, but I'm getting there.
 
We have two 1929 Tudors. We had a third tudor that I shortened up and put the back wall of a pickup onto it, now it is just a pickup and lives out in the snow.

The tudor has to be the most practical Model A body style made. The tudor covered most all of the early car owner's needs. Affordable, easy to drive, hauled five people, and as compared to the roadster, phaeton, and the pick up, it was easier to get in and out of.
 
My only Model A, a 1929 Tudor. The body style and year I was looking for patiently waited for me in a carport for 36 years. It has a 1-4-1929 matching engine to chassis, 1-21-29 gas tank, with a 2-29 assembly date on the subframe. Single headlight and fluted lens.

I'm new to model A's ... bought my '29 Tudor this past November. Completely restored but not by me, of course. Pretty much laid up for the winter. Can't wait for Spring.
