Is there storage under the rear seat of a Tudor?
 

Looking at one for a friend and other than adding the toolkit over the front splash guard, I can't figure out where to keep the Jack, extra belts and bulbs, etc.

Doesn't have a rack or steamer trunk.

Thanks

you can lift the rear seat and theres quite a bit of room under it
only trouble is that raising and lowering the seat wears the side panels out

Yes, I believe you can remove the seat cushion and put stuff under the seat. There is not a lot of room, but enough to get some stuff in the space.

Good place for the crank , jack, & other stuff I don't need on a regular basis as my rear seat bottom doesn't tuck in place easily .

When u check out the car remove the rear seat bottom to look down in the quarter body pockets with a flash light for rot, half ass panel repairs etc...

With my '29 Tudor I removed the rear seat and built up a compartment with what looks like a 1 x 8. I put a piece of plywood on top of that for a seat. With foam cushions on that, it makes a reasonably comfortable ride for rear seat passengers. I have good shocks. Lots of storage room for spare parts, tools, and flea market purchases.

In the 5 years I have had my rig, it has been hand cranked once -- just to say we did it.

I seldom raise the driver seat so the tool bag, crank and jack all fit under it. I don't carry a lot of stuff with me but if I did, it would go under the rear seat.

I wasn't worried. I have considered getting one of those boxes for my A but have always wondered about the cranking issue. I seem to have lots of occasions where I have to use my crank.:rolleyes: i just wondered what guys do who have a box like that. What is that electric thing?

To carry a crank is good,, but if you think you might have a problem starting , look for a place to park where you can roll it off.

That Lithium charger says it is for 12 volts.....will it work to jump a 6volt Model A safely?

Under my 29'Tudor rear seat I kept a bottle jack, chocks of wood for the front wheels when jacking, a spare carburetor,distributor, head gasket and sealer, water pump, plugs, condenser,points,fuses and the original tool kit and also a modern tool kit with 1/2 inch drive sockets and drive handle. Also duct tape and wire. I kept the crank under front seat so it was handy if needed. Never needed any of that stuff except a fuse one time in 28 years.
