Hey Brent, Just wanted to point out that the '28 Chevy wood didn't survive the elements very well. I have also owned a 1926 Buick with Fisher body composite wood and sheet metal construction. It appeared to be of a more robust construction than then the Chevy. Probably had seen better storage through the years as well. Comparing a Fleetwood bodied Cadillac or Rolls, Bentley, Duesenberg not even in the same class with superior construction and no doubt seen better care and storage than run of the mill Chevys. Regarding the wood bodied composite Model A's, I have no experience with them.
