Not knowing the history on this car I don't know how you can honestly say that.

A friend has a similar car that he "built". It would never be a Model A again, altho the body looks better than a lot of Model As running around. When he got his it was an old rusted out body. He fabbed the door skins and most of the lower sheet metal from the belt line down, taking measurements off of his pristine stock '30 Tudor.

He built the frame, had seats made, installed a "Hot Rodded 4 Banger. It looks like a '30 Tudor, but there is not much Ford left so I don't think he "screwed" anything up.

Yes, there are a fair amount of Model As being Hot Rodded. But guess what? It is their car.

Just my 2 cents worth.
