Well, I really don't know. My neighbor restores old vetts and he said it would be worth a lot more if I made a hot rod out of it. He will re-do the frames, steering rear-ends and goes all out on them. I would really like to go back original but I guess that will be something to decide on when I start. I am 46 now and it will be a few years. Iam going to build me a shop in my back yard pretty soon so I will have a place to put it and take my time working on it.

Your neighbor hit the nail on the head there. It is worth a lot more as a hot rod, especially if it is done right. Luckily, there are a lot of parts out there for 30's Fords. My vote goes for black primer with red steelies, chopped, and flathead powered. Just my choice, though.
