A word of warning on the repop bodies - I have a Brookville '30-'31 that is, for no better term, a major POS with not a straight, level, smooth, correctly rivited panel on it - and my (almost) full description of the problems encountered is available if you are interested. A PM will get link in return.
But with that said, I have heard that their '32 roadster is a pretty good assembly and have seen a couple of them completed and should be considered. I had seen their '32 demo coupe at York this year, and while it has some ugly spots - has the makings of nice car with a bit of metal caressing.
Word of warning though - the steel used in manufacture is NOT of the same strength as the originals. It is what is known as draw quality so the engineering plastic dies that Brookville uses survive and is extremely SOFT, dinging and denting easily.Dave
