    I own this 29, and can take some photos for you of the inside and structural wood.

    That is something like I am thinking about building based off a Model T or A cowl and windshield frame. I just can't locate the parts to get started at an affordable price. I was thinking Continental flat head 4 or 6. I'd like to use the supercharged 90hp Conti from the Kasier-Fraser cars.

    I will send you some photos, the only original parts of the 29 are the windshield frame and cowl. I don't believe it's possible to build anything cheap. I didn't build mine and I'm a good wood worker but it looks complicated. My email is [email protected], will be the easiest way for me to send pics, send me a test note.

    Always thought this one is slick...would probably do it with wood, not bamboo though. D5708979-2EF3-4B49-ABDA-A9A8A46BA192.png

    This one too! Not even Ford sheet metal (except for readily available fenders, running boards and splash aprons and splash shield)...could be built on an”A” frame though...like the tall top too! FE5B6B27-F284-4BA3-8E46-7E80EB67073A.png

    That is a Dodge cowl/hood/rad shell and Ford 28/29 fenders, probably frame. I remember it from magazines, maybe Rod & Custom. IIRC it belonged to Mike Chiavetta.

    Sorry I took so long to get back here. Thanks for the offer. I have my plan for the wood body panels over a steel cage.

    Chevy did it for years then someone got the idea to put the wood on the outside.
