What do you do when you have to crank your engine?

Haha, Well Ray. Thankfully I have never run into that problem... yet. Probably the same thing I would do with my Modern.

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 do it at car shows all the time to show the "kids".
