Don, I am sorry to say this but I am not seeing the distinction other than the hood appears to be longer on the Yellow Ford and its back wheels are about six inches to the rear. Absolutely the engine has not been aligned correctly and its certainly lacking the radius rods and hairpins as you state and arguably the wheels are not what I would select, but those are issues that needs to be peeled back as I get more involved. What I was endeavoring to do here is to show where my choices are heading. To me the fluid lines of the 32 Ford are both compelling and stunning and and here's the slow burn, I can see myself driving one of these classic hot rods. So can you help me understand the distinction since I have never seen any 32 Fords for sale listed as Mid Boys but then I am new and have not dug deep enough. BTW can you also throw in an explanation regarding the coils over questions I asked? I would be grateful for this. Thanks, tin-man
