    I absolutely agree with Ryan on the A-bone in today's JJ page. I would just add that the drilled visor. Gets my vote in the perfection department. If you didn't look at it, I recommend going to the JJ now.

    Yep...Rolf's car is super nice! I really like his attention to detail.

    And I like the Model A at the bottom of the page too! :)

    I was gonna drill the visor on my old 33 pickup but some guys said it sets up a whistling noise. I shoulda done it. Shee-it, you couldn't have heard a whistle over the straight pipes anyway...

    Rocky, I just can't WAIT for the article on tuning the sunvisor whistle in the next Tech Week. I vote for A# or B flat.

    Maybe if you drilled different sized holes you could get the visor to play a chord:p

    On a model a you could tune it to a-major................

    I like the visor as is...I think Rolf's car looks like it would if Henry designed a chopped A on 32 rails with no fenders and a nailhead :) The drilled visor would bee too much IMHO. Littleman's A - yes,the visor is the crowning touch on Deaths Door Step!

    I've been working on my A coupe for a couple of months now, I've followed Rolf's build and it's a big inspiration.
