Re: Not a Chevy guy, but...
Chevrolets of the era ride much smoother than Fords because of their semi-elliptic springs at each corner.
Having raced a 1932 Chevy Master Coupe with my Deluxe Model A Coupe, I find the cars were equally matched from a roll, but the Model A accelerated quicker from a stop.
The downfalls of the Chevrolet are its body construction and fuel pump. Too much wood in the body, and back in 1930s a new / rebuilt fuel pump cost what a running used car did.
Technology wise, Plymouth was the winner in the 1930s when the Model A was current.
