Alan, it would be a showcar to me! Nice A for sure. I may be buying a 30 pickup in the next few weeks.

They were great cars. I had a 1930 closed cab pick up for about 10 years and had lots of fun with it. I rebuilt and balanced the engine with help from a friend who has A's in his blood. The best things I did for driving was change the points to a modern Blue Streak set up, installed Float-A-Motor mounts, and adjustable lifters. Have fun with it, they're addicting vehicles for sure.
