Now think about that....remove or replace that steering assembly and the number goes away with it! DD


No worse than Model A's using the engine number for the title. Replace the engine with another banger or make an AV8 and the only number to compare to what is on the title is on the frame under the body. Can't tell you how many stock 4 banger Model A's I've seen for sale that are advertised as having a clean title where the engine number doesn't match the title.
