  1. I agree. Smaller front tires would give some much needed rubber rake.

    The front seats were bought in black by procar. They only come in black, or a cream color. You can get them without vinyl and do them yourselves. The back seat I believe it was around $300 from a place on 23rd ave and Deer Valley.

    The hood is a new hood.


    I thought about doing it but they fold forward enough. If I was to do it though I thought about making a square frame and put hinges on the front and this on the side to lock it in. http://www.ruffstuffspecialties.com/catalog/R2215.html

    Well its been about 2 months since shoulder surgery and I am finally able to start working on the car again. I could never get the hood lined up correctly and figured out the grill is suppose to be lower and the hood I bought was for a non fender car. So the grill is sitting where it is suppose to now. I decided to remake the pieces flat at the bottom of the hood instead of messing with trying to cut the hood. Now I just need to do the bodywork on the pieces and paint everything. Hopefully by this weekend. Hoodlinedup.jpg flathoodbottom.jpg

  17. FYI: those pieces are called hood shelves. ;)

    Any photos of how you did the hood sides to fit? You mention re making them instead of cutting the existing stuff

    You built one hell of a nice Tudor. Outstanding. And I love that it’s a “Ford in a Ford”. Mine is too...and it’s great that you built it yourself.
