Hey all,

I am in quite a quandary. Yesterday I was in my Dad’s warehouse, where he stores a bunch of cars for people, and in the corner I saw what I thought was a really old Ford. Turns out to be a 1929 Model A Coupe complete with a rumble seat and a luggage carrier. When I asked if he thought the people would want to sell it, he said he would ask. He talked to them and they gave him the low down in the car. It was her dad’s car that had been restored about 40 years ago. The current owners used to drive it in parades, so it used to run when they stored it 14 years ago and they said it would start right up. The odometer says 02882 and they said that is how many miles have been put on it since it was restored! They said they would like to sell it to me. I bought it.
Now the problem. Do I keep it original and do another minor restore to it or do I make a really nice street rod?
Where do I start?
I currently have a Windsor motor, with a stroker kit, that I am building. It is a 396 ci with 185 AFR heads and a dual plane intake. I have a C4 automatic transmission that was built to put behind and handle the horsepower of the motor I currently have.
Man would this make a nice setup.
OK, what would you guys do?

Puzzled,
Steve
