The first owner bought my 1929 Tudor off the showroom floor in Portland, where it was assembled on July 17, 1929. He was a farmer who lived in Estacada, about 25 miles out of Portland. In 1953 he parked it in his barn where it stayed until 1961. A local collector bought it in June of 1961, and I convinced him to sell it to me on July 1, 1961. So I am almost the 2nd owner. The car was complete and virtually all original, except for a replacement wiper motor. The most unusual feature of the car was the color of the wheels. They were a deep blue-green. I've never seen any others like them, nor ever read anything about that color. I have regretted many times over the years painting them black, but I was young and ignorant and those things happen when you're like that.
