Re: Interesting Comments about you Ride It was a beautiful night tonight and we heard about a truck show which featured a bunch of lifted gigantic trucks. Thought it would be fun to bring our 28 pickup.
One little kid about 9-10 was very interested in our truck and asked a bunch of questions. But the best was when he pinched his fingers over my spare tire to measure the width and then walked over with his fingers open the size of my tire and held it over a monster truck tire parked next to me to compare size of our tires. My wife got a kick out of watching the little guy. |

Re: Interesting Comments about you Ride Some times when I was driving my 1929 Chevy coach. People would ask, "What year is your Model-A?" :eek::eek:
Bob-A:D Skirts belong on women, not car fenders! ;) |
Re: Interesting Comments about you Ride at a local car show a few weeks ago a lovely young lady asked me if she could have her picture taken while sitting in my car, she said the car and her were the same age... priceless.

Re: Interesting Comments about you Ride I guess the reaction I have found that most tickled me was a fellow at a car show that said: "A Truck with an open top, how cool is that." The guy in his 20's was desperate to have the truck, but Toni is not for sale, yet.
My choice of color was influenced by how 28/29 fenders wrap around the tires, like on a model T. Gives people the impression the truck is even older than it is. Plus there are too many green ones. ;) |
Re: Interesting Comments about you Ride I am 58 and I have a black 1930 Tudor with whitewalls....It looks kind of gangster...
I use mine as a daily driver, so I get lots of questions..... 1. How old were you when that car was made?? (I was born in 1960) 2. What do those handles on the inside of the door do? (Window cranks) 3. What kind of radio did those come with? 4. Where do you get fuel for something like this? 5. How fast does it go? 6. Manual transmission....wow, you know how to drive a stick shift? 7. Did you build that from a kit? 8. That probably rides smoother than new cars. 9. Can you still get parts for that? 10. Can you blow the horn? 11. Can I take a picture? 12. How often do you show it. (Never...bought it to drive) 13. Is that a Cadillac ?? 14. When people see it at my office they ask.."How did it get here?" (I drove it) 15. How would you get it home after dark?? (See those nice headlights) 16. Is this like the Bonnie and Clyde car? 17. Where did you get it? 18. Did you restore it yourself? 19. Can I see the interior and/or engine. 20. How much did it cost or how much is it worth.... Like I said...I never show it, but I drive it a lot so lots of people come up to me asking lots of questions about the car....I know I will think of 20 more as soon as I post this. |

Re: Interesting Comments about you Ride A fellow in a brand new top of the line Chevy pickup truck pulled up to the pump next to me. As I was filling my Tudor up he asked me what year car it is. I told him that it is a 1930 model A Tudor. He proceeded to tell me that my Tudor would probably outlast his new truck. I just told him that it already has.

Re: Interesting Comments about you Ride Basically what I have gotten is:
1. How much is it worth? 2. Nice Model T! 3. It has a planetary transmission, right? 4. What kind of gas does it use? 5. How do you get by with one tail light? |
