Hey Hitchhiker. I believe I understand what you are trying to achieve. I see a couple of period Model A hot rods out and they are very cool. Despite the push back from some, since you are doing something right in the middle, these folks can help you with the Model A details. I believe what you're trying to build is a very early hot rod that a guy would've built just before WWII. A bone stock Model A with as many customizing/hop up mods you could do for little or no $$ ? Since you are not cutting anything, no one should get bent outta shape since you are not destroying anything. Best of luck and keep me (and anyone else who's interested) posted with pix and updates. I for one will try to answer any of your questions that I can. I hope the others do the same. Harry K
