How would anyone know if it's all original or not when no one around now was alive to have seen it new and would have actually knew what they were looking at.

I wouldn't even want to be near that, its kinda creepy and scary.

Young lady, I am old enough. I remember riding in two different Model A's, one a small flatbed likely made from a pickup, and one a dump truck. Have you not heard the story of me breaking the headlight glass TWICE to "see the little man with a lantern" inside?

I admit it might not be ALL original. Aren't those "V8" wheels?
 
I've got a buddy with three OLD Fords in his garage (yeah, three of them in a two-car garage). They're all pretty decent, though. Two from the 'teens and a '35 roadster V8/manual trans once owned by Dennis Wilson. Cool stuff...
 
As a kid in Genoa Colorado, I remember seeing the old A's and T's sitting in alleys, and they had plywood floorboards.

Man, seeing that takes me back!!!!!
 
There's an old man (says the 63 year old) in Biltmore Forest that has 2 Model A Fords sitting under an old carport. Hasn't touched them in decades, and won't even talk about selling them. There's no telling how many of ALL brands of old cars are stuffed away that can't be seen! :eek:
 
Many a "roll cage" got bolted to those plywood floors....

Lots of races won and a few lifes saved...
 
That is so cool I'd love to have something like that to tinker on!
 
When I was a kid and we only had one car, Mama came to pick us up from school and we'd go down to the post office and pick Daddy up from work. Where he waited for us on the sidewalk, there was a one stall garage and in that garage there was a Model T Ford. He used to hold us up to the windows to see it because we weren't tall enough. The garage is still there, but the car long gone. Back when The Farmer's Market was in downtown Macon, instead of where they moved it years ago out in the hood, there was a small garage in the back lot where a turn of the 20th century Stanley Steamer was. That was really neat. The owner would occasionally get the car out and drive it as it still ran! We used to see it around town every now and then. Dammit, that was a long time ago.
