That is a great model. Lots of skill in making it look old.

Looks like no 1930-31 model A kits were harmed in the making of this. ���� Jeff

Not a Ford, but the old guy that built it called it a Doodlebug. I think it's a Chevy because of the radiator cap and seems to be only running on one cylinder.

Engine looks like a big, old cast-iron Briggs, like those found on old Planet Jr. cultivators. One-lunger.
