Hi Old,

FWIW:

1. Does it really matter what "others" think?

2. In my opinion, it "all" depends what "you" want, e.g.:

A. A "complete" original Model A truck that other Model A owners would consider rather authentic looking; or,

B. A vehicle for semi-recreational transportation assembled with parts ranging from 1929 to 1931, or anything similar that is not authentic looking.

3. If you state your feelings on "exactly" what "you" want, the Forum replies will begin to have credence.

4. If "you" like it & listen to what "others" want in a vehicle:

A. After it is possibly sold or picked up by one of the owner's family members, we will hear, "I should have bought it."; &,

B. After you bought it & find out you do not have time to restore it, or find out it cost another $6,000.00 to restore it, we will hear, "I should have listened & just paid $12,000.0 for a restored Model A truck.

5. Let us know what would make "you" happy after the purchase & the replies received will begin to sound like music to your ears.

6. Just want you to stay happy ........................... life is so short -- especially for all of us similar Model A Old Farts!
