    Need pics of Model A Hot Rod Show Cars. I've already searched and found traditional model a hotrods and your favorite hot rods, but there were only one or two show car style hotrods.
    I plan on building mine unchopped, bobbed fenders on rear, cycle fenders on front, metal flaked with padded vynil insert on top matching the interior.
    If you have some pics of model a unchopped fendered coupes that would be great.

  4. Sounds Awesome. There is the orange/tangering tudor from Japan that is quite prolific.
