Barn Find Southern IL.

Here's a 31 model A I found in a barn last fall. It has been there since 1978 setting in a barn about 200 yards off a main road.

It will be a street rod. I have bought a TCI chassie with stainless upgrade. I have a LS1 with a 4L60E transmission, independent front end, and a 9" ford rear end.
