Repowered Model A Sedan
I was going through my old bookmarks and found one that may interest some here. This is a restomod of a Model A Sedan using a Ford BDA motor with redesigned driveline and suspension.
200 photos of the build

Enjoy!CHRIS

That is nuts
The skill that’s gone into the body resto.
Luv the ‘wooden’ wheels.

One cool machine, lots to "disguise" the mechanics, the woody wheels, that sneaky little cheater hole in the muffler, and a superb frame and body job and integration of old style and newer driveline. Plus it shares that shop with some other nice gear as well.
I used to be an engineer, I'm not an engineer any more, but on the really good days I can remember when I was.

Nice fabrication work - I particularly like the neat drawings of the suspension brackets.
Wonder if they were tooling up to produce a lot of upgraded chassis?
Also like the deTomaso or Ferrari in the background of images 71 & 86.
and the "secret misfire switch" to give that authentic Model A sound
