Perhaps the things done to make it 'better' changes the cars soul..straight cut gears take skill to operate,mechanical brakes take sense to have,when your teeth rattle your pushing it too hard...hot?open the windshield,sweat a little..

you can have an 'original' car, just like the one designed by Ford,hell scratch around enough and you can do it with Rouge parts..originality isn't a judging standard,its a choice made by the owner..

Very well said. I like to keep them the way they were made too. Others have their own opinion what "our" Model A should be or could be. Would a true collector add paint to a Rembrandt?
