Picture I took of my car today

[Theo]

Posted this pic online and a lot of people liked it, so I figured I would post it on here. My '30 tudor sedan next to an abandoned pipe factory in Hackettstown NJ

Car has some minor stuff done to it. Pretty much a daily driver in the summer.

Wonderful looking vehicle.

Sad to see the pipe factory as such -- probably provided many jobs years ago.

Very nice car and setting.
Why no hood sides?? Or am I not seeing them for the angle??

Looks like Al Capones guys shot at your beautiful car with a machine gun and missed, and got the windows instead. Glad they missed.

I thought his car backfired and blew out the windows.

It bad enough to see what's happened to our industry, but then to have vandals destroy the property really makes it bad.

Glad to know that's not your home behind it

Very neat photo, in that one could read lots into the symbolize if they wished.

Thanks!

And you are correct, no hood sides on the car. I have some work done to the engine (elec. ignition, weber 2 bbl carb and aluminum intake manifold and headers so I wanted to show it off a little more and let it breathe better.

That's a snappy looking Tudor. It looks similar to my 30 Coupe.....except of course its a Tudor. Very nice. But I have to tell you I dont like the old dead factory building in the background, it detracts from the beauty of that Model A!

I think it is a great shot. The only thing I would do is photoshop or crop the red Car out in the background.

Very cool.

Hey Theo, is that the old tool and die shop next to the RXR tracks?

Yes sir it is! Someone told me pipe factory but Im sure tool and die shop is correct since all the old lathes are still in there. Looks like its going to be demo'd soon

Cool shot! Could be a scene from the Ford riots.

Tiny, You did a good job.

Looks very authentic.

Nice looking photo.

How are you holding your hood on without sides? I am not going to use the Hood sides but trying to figure a way to hold the hood in place. I like the leather straps but exspensive and I think it looks nice and clean how you have it.

Anytime!
