Model A truck

My father is handing down his model A truck thats been sitting for a long time but rand and drove when parked. Im not sure what my plans are with it exactly if I want to lower it slightly or keep it original. Its a complete truck all original even the engine and trans.

 

Wow, thats nice! Im sure the traditionalists would say keep it stock...

 

I know but 3/4 of me wants it lowered, but now slammed otherwise I want to keep it original rust and all.

Edit: and its hard to steal being that it has to be cranked be hand to start.

 

Listen to your 1/4.

 

I’d keep it original. Simply because it’s so complete.

 

if its done prorperly it should be good either way. Just so long as you dont make it a drift truck....

 

My grandfather restored one of those several years ago for my Uncle (both have now passed) and he gave me his restoration log. It took him forever to find a company that made the correct type of tires and wheels (this was back when the internet didn't have Google). Beautiful truck, but even at 6' tall that cab was cramped, and the double clutch was a hoot to drive.

 

Not a chance of that happening, keeping the wheels too but would like a slight staggered look. I definitely dont want to over do it or give it a cream puff look. Shit the roof has been replaced by some one before with a gas station sign so its not perfect.

 

X2! Once you chop and cut into it, it'll never be a beautiful example of an original Model A again!

 

3.4 swap

 

Before you butcher it and lose half its value want to sell it?

 

Sure how much you got?
I only accept left nuts and limbs

 

You didn't specify who's...

 

Nice

 

Sweet! Rinse that radiator out and drive it, as is

 

"If" I lower it, this is as low as id go. This truck in this picture has the same wheels and all and looks perfect to me. But first things first and thats getting road worthy first.
