Chevette in Model A ???

[biglar]

I've been reading archives till I'm ½ blind, and I'm coming up with more questions all the time. I'll try to hold off till I actually have the car ('30 Ford Model A) next month, but one thing really has me wondering. I've heard for years about the Mustang II front end, and how good it is, and so on, but my car apparently has a Chevette front end. I asked the current owner why he chose that, and he said, "cause that's what was in it when I bought it." He's driven it 1,000's of miles over 7 years, and says it drives like a sports car, so it must be OK, but seems to me like that's an awful light front end for a V8 powered car. Any thoughts out there ??

Hey, Dave.....looks like we're neighbors. I'd like to see your car sometime. I'll buy the coffee.
