TEXT:

I am building a 50's style streetrod. I am using an original manufactured body and frame from a 1929 ford roadster.

The state of Wisconsin will title this car as a 'Reconstructed Vehicle'. It must conform to all 1929 state and federal laws as to required equipment.

I have two questions. First, in 1929 were there any federal standards, laws, or requirements that automobiles must be equipped with: 1) Fenders, 2) Bumpers, 3) hoods, 4) Doors, 5) windshield wipers (powered or manual).

My second question is, between 1920 and 1934 were there any federal laws requiring the above items on any autos in addition to my question about 1929 cars?
