Well what a good hubby you are! Very nice lookin coupe. I notice it has the common sagging frame, note the V shaped hood to cowl gap. They tend to be weak in the motor mount area. There are several methods to go after it when it bothers you enough

Speaking of Model As there is a nice old '31 roadster for sale on the V-8 Club website for a decent price.
