That's a bit harsh isn't it? Were there not Snowbird conversion kits for Model As? Also, Livingwood who made 4x4 kits for Model Ts I've read did work on a 4x4 kit for Model As...but actually, I'm unlikely to try to convert this car to 4x4 because it's just too nice to take apart. If I had a car needing restoration I think trying to convert it to 4x4 with a pre-war design would be great fun and no less good for the hobby than hi-comp heads, Mitchell o/d, etc.
Tom, thanks for the info.
