29 Tudor wood kit
Im looking for an affordable wood kit for my 29. I've heard some kits have to be reworked they are so bad and I know you get what you pay for. I'am building a 50's style hot rod from an old body my uncle had on his ranch and needless to say its a rusty rotted hunk of metal but still worth saving. Saw the Ford wood site but pretty high cost for my needs. Any help would be appreciated. Thanx

Re: 29 Tudor wood kit
All the commercial kits are about the same price and fit. Since its a hot rod why not reinforce with tubing?
As the sister site to this one, HAMB is focused on Hot Rods you might get additional ideas there.

The 29 Tudor wood is used mainly to attach upholstery and the top material, and you might try cutting your own wood. I have some pictures of the rear wood. I also have a nice original rear seat cushion wood base for sale.

Don't be scared of doing the wood yourself. I do all my own wood, and it is about ten times easier than any steel work.

80 to 100 hours is not way out there for sedans. Tudor a little less. We are lucky that the parts we need are not that complex.
