GTP Cool Wall: Ford Model A. Voting Open!

[High-Test]

I suppose what I'd like to see is someone fully hop-up the 40HP four. I know they made OHV and OHC heads for it and stuff like that...Frontenac, I think was one make. However, most of the 'rods you see today are replica bodies. so...meh. I'm fine with brass-era 'rodding so long as it's (a) a '50s original, (b) was a rod project in the first place and was never finished, or, (c) didn't destroy an original body.

EDIT: ooh, look at this. Model A engine with a Riley OHV head and ITBs!

The interesting thing is that Frontenac was started by Louis and Gaston Chevrolet after Louis was drummed out of GM for being hard-headed. I think they won a couple races at Indy with a car powered by thier engines.

From an automotive enthusiast point of view, industry innovativeness is much appreciated.

Cool, for the fact that you can turn it into a kick-ass hot rod, along with the looks of it.
