Rich Axelrod has become one of our closest Tucker friends. He is one of the kindest and most genuine people we have ever met but made some mistakes in his past that he paid for dearly. No one can deny his world-class work on Tucker 1039 or his passion for the Tucker story. Join us as he tells the story of how he and his late partner Ed Monroe acquired Tucker 39, restored it, and had it taken away by the US Marshals. Tucker 1039 ended up at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History for generations to view and enjoy thanks to Rich and Ed choosing to "do it the right way" and preserve the legacy of their rare Tucker automobile.
