Now for the rest of your request. As far as traditional rods go the '32 Ford tops the list. After that I'd say the '40 Ford, particularly the coupe. [/url]
I never heard about the model B being 4s only. I guess I'm not too old to learn!

The '40 Ford would have been one of my picks, too, but I always include the '39 in the same breath, since visually they were very similar, especially with the '40 standard model.

I think we could all agree on a dozen or two dozen cars, that have become highly prized. I can see there are going to be many others that are individually prized due to personal involvment.
