Does this aftermarket dash attach behind the original top part of the dash or can it be used as a stand alone option?
Note to self. Get wheel locks before heading to Vegas next week. :)
I believe the 28-29 Model A's came with a painted radiator shell.

Anybody have an idea what rear bumper they used. It appears a lot flatter than the curvature of a stock 40 rear bumper.
You might try a taller sidewall set of tires.
I do have the 15" repo and will probably use it on my aftermarket Model A steering column as appears that it is for a gm column. The original was 17"
Since I already have a reproduction, I might as well try some other way on this wheel. I might take a dremel tool and cut a narrow grove around...

OK, I get it. Thanks for all the responses.

I'm guessing an automatic transmission. :rolleyes:
The 1969 Corvette L-88 used a 10.4" clutch with a 12.75" flywheel. I'd worry about the stock tranny long before the 10" clutch.
