Re: Early 1928 tudor sedan
What I find very interesting is the serial number on the steering column,
I did check to see if it was a part number. My ve-28 column has no serial number... |

Re: Early 1928 tudor sedan
My dad's 28 Tudor was bult at the Rouge on July 27, 1928. It has a lot of early features like a multy-disk clutch and the same type of starter switch. Cool car on these photos!

Re: Early 1928 tudor sedan
I will have to check this on the early column housing I have. Already sold the endplate for the early light switch, so only have the housing left. Worm and sector gears were shot. Rod

Re: Early 1928 tudor sedan
Very cool. I had an early '28 (not as early as this Tudor) roadster pickup when I was younger, but didn't appreciate it. I kept it all original, as is my policy anyway, but had to sell it for taxes in the mid-80's. Sorry I ever let it go. A friend says, "I never sell anything, because I always regret it sooner or later." I agree, and hence a garage and house full of "stuff."

Re: Early 1928 tudor sedan
Speaking of early roadster pickups ---- it was my understanding that even though many Model A pickups got early features such as left-hand emergency brakes, it was because Ford used outdated features on the commercial line of vehicles until they were all used up, whereas the cars got the new features as they came out. I have a 28 RPU with provision for the left hand emergency brake, but I think that it was manufactured in late 1928. Anybody know when the first Model A roadster pickup was made, and at about what serial number???

Re: Early 1928 tudor sedan
My March 28 sport coupe ser#62@@@ has a different column but has the same starter set up as well as the left side e-brake. I just love the early quirks

I have no idea who the previous owner was but the one photo tells the story. It's great to see an example of someone going the extra mile because they care.

Re: Early 1928 tudor sedan
I like the purple bucket under the dash. That is a feature I have never seen before, either. ;-)

Re: Early 1928 tudor sedan
Just dug mine out and no serial numbers on the housing. I know of another early chassis and may have a look at it sometime this fall. I have thought several times about buying it, but will have to hold out until I find a decent early body to put on it. Rod
