christmas tree on the sedan?
Was curious if anyone has attempted to place a Christmas tree on their town sedan or tudor and drive it home from the tree lot. Is there anything I can do to reinforce the roof of the car so that I don't damage it? Any pictures would be appreciated!
Thanks, Geoff |

Re: christmas tree on the sedan?
Here's a T doing it, I would add some padding under the tree however.

Tie it to the fender(s) and lay on running boards.

Re: christmas tree on the sedan?
If they wrap the tree. get an old comforter or moving pad. Toss it on top and tie it down. not like you will be doing 70MPH home.

I liked the videos, that model T at the farm is exactly what I want. I just don't want to tear my new top! Paul, I never thought of your idea, I bet it would work! Will probably try that first. I want to get a picture of it for our Christmas cards this year.. Thanks to all! Geoff |
