    My old '39 Tudor in my avatar was all stock suspension except for long shackles. Even with the stock 16" wide 5's it sat nice and low.

    Living as close to Auburn as I do I have seen every type of Auburn, Cord and Duesenburg that you can imagine and they are a thing of beauty. I even worked the judging field for 14 years during the ACD Festival. There are some nice full scale fiberglass repros of the Cord available and I can't understand why we haven't seen any built as street rods. There have been a few Auburn Speedsters done but no 810s that I can remember.

    Here's a company who has the molds and will build you one. I suspect the one pictured is a rendering, but you're not alone in your thinking. 1937 Cord Sportsman Cabriolet Photos from DuLoux Motors Ltd.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
