Welcome to the barn. You may be in the wrong place but we've all woken up in the wrong place before. Nice project. Around here north of cottonwood creek is Nor Cal or Jefferson if you will. Where you at?

Welcome - even with your project, I'll bet you will have some Model A questions. Please ask them. It is surprising how much information is available here. Bill in SoCal
