A few weeks ago, the Tucker 1044 received new whitewall tires and a tune-up. This is two-minute video of the test ride where we reached a speed of 45 miles per hour.
After the test ride, I did obtain a copy of the Tucker'48 tune-up specifications.
Enjoy,

The six Vanderbilt Cup Races held on Long Island from 1904 to 1910 were the greatest sporting events of their day, and the first international automobile road races held in the United States. The races had a far-reaching impact on the development of American automobiles and parkways. This site provides comprehensive information on the races, the Long Island Motor Parkway and current Long Island automotive events, car shows and news.

Enjoyed the “ride”. It seemed responsive and reasonably quiet and the unusual shifting appeared not difficult I reckon a new set of tires helped too. What were your impressions driving number 44.

Ken, a real nice ride! It feels like the Tucker has power steering.
