Just a thought that you may not appreciate hearing,.....but why not think about buying a car that's already built like you want, and sell your 35 Cabriolet to someone who would appreciate having a more original car. Seems like so many nice original early Fords get chopped up, and painted some Jelly Bean color, then wind up as non sellers on eBay and Craigslist. JMHO, and my apologies if this offends you or others who post here.
