Default Cutoff coupe

At a show last Sunday in Berlin, NJ I saw this cutoff Model A coupe. On one hand I hated to see this being done but on the other it's nice to see it being driven with original equipment. The owner had just bought it and told me it was done eons ago. Usually it's the sport coupe that is convertible-ized. The belt molding stands out oddly. The windshield posts were leaned back, why I don't know and the radiator is from an AA truck.The column is lowered .

The windshield is angled back for aerodynamics ,and to cut down glare. Ford started this in late 30, early 31. I think it's a decently done.
