    Does anybody have any info on this sedan? I found the pic in the model a sedan thread. Drivetrain? Rearend and spring setup? Looks about perfect to me! Thanks

    Don't know anything about it but it is certainly using the original banger, front wishbone and battery box. Can't see the original brake rods but the battery in the original position makes it tough to put in a master cylinder. Looks like an A rear end as well.

    That model A used to belong to my son in law Chad ( Retroline ) It was basicly dead stock complete with banger & mechanical brakes and a 4" dropped axle & big and little tyres, oh & a 4" hair cut. and yes I do agree it did look pretty cool for so few mods.:cool:

    The haircut was 5" and a bit.:D
    Yeah, basically stock drive train, only removed some leaves from springs and 4" axle to get the stance. Mechanical brakes to rear only.
