I am going to (oh sacrilege) chop up a 1931 ford sedan and turn it into a roadster pick-up. I will cut body off just behind front doors, move rear of body foreward, then cut top off & fabricate a pick-up bed and a carson top. Has anyone out there done this before? Does anybody know the measurement from outside to outside of brake drums on a model A ford? I have an I-beam & spindles, but don't know what they are out of.

Thanx---Brian
