1929 Ford Model A Coupe Build
It's the new year and I'm starting my build in earnest. I've also had time to research and start to refine my plan.

Transmission....Camaro T5 with a NWC S10 main shaft & tail housing,
Rear end....Maverick 8"
Front end....Heidt's Superide. I'm going with the Heidts because this is going to be an everyday driver. So I'm looking for more creature comforts.
Wheels....15x6, maybe 15x8 rear. True Spoke... Chrome Hot Rod Wire Wheels - Raw F Still haven't decided on white wall or black wall.
