    That's awesome!
    If it were mine, I don't know what I'd do about the wheels, but I would absolutely keep the 6 banger, and dress it out with period speed parts: dual intake, finned valve cover, Fenton headers, and let it ride. When is the last time you saw a dressed 6 in a '30s car?

    Wow, what a neat car!

    Your headline really got me excited until I realized the car wasn't a V16 Cadillac or a Ford.
