You should get answers to your questions on the A forum, but not for the mechanical section of your car.

What I really want is two cars, a restored one and a authentically finished hot rod that uses the same techniques and finishes you would find common when all the parts used to build my car would have been manufactured. This means on all the parts I intend to use on my 1931 model A. All of the parts need to be finished to their factory specification. whether it's the 31 A frame or the 36 front axle or the model B Banger or the 42 Flathead.(not sure which one i'm using) or the wood and paint finish, fasteners, etc. I want it all to be exact. I know it's crazy, but it's what I want. I don't really fit here, but I don't really fit there either.....
