My ol' girl. Bought from it from an advertisement on the HAMB after it was inspected and test driven by a HAMBer and was assisted to get it on the road by HAMBers.
Other than being "cool" in some people's minds, IMHO a chop just screws up the proportions of a good body design and messes up the 'period' look of a car. Not limited to Model As, applies to lot of body styles. It ain't broke.... don't try to 'fix' what professional designers produced!
I agree on banger power, with a lowered model A chassis even with everything tight it’s like a fat kid on a tightrope above 65..she scoots with a Mitchell gear splitter, I can gap a Kia Rio if I get the jump on it.
Amen Whenever I catch a thread on a new A project, I look at the post until I see the tape on the roof. Then it's Bye Bye

Pretty cool, but there needs to be some flex line in that fuel line, the engine will move around relative to the firewall and the copper will fatigue, crack and leak fuel
