    Model A body on Model T frame

     



    I was wondering, I found a Model A body in pretty good shape, would save me a lot of body work. I was wondering how close the lower body shape would be to my T frame I built, it forms quite close to the T body and I don't want to start cutting up the frame to make it fit.

    Don I think I caught the same thing Dan got, I keep wanting to change things!!

    Thanks guys for the input. I think I got over that idea, I've got too much work into my body to just let it go. I guess I'll just go out and get some more sheetmetal and start making patches. I got 3 weeks off I'm gonna try to get the bodywork done.

    Thanks,
    Sean
