My vote would be a 29 shell painted body color & changing the wheels to Halibrands ;)

The painted one is cool but I think I like the chrome better.
Ahhhh...... that must be it.... my company's firewall is mist surely blocking that. **)Quote:

I vote for the painted grill '29 grill shell. Here is a photo of my '29 roadster with a painted shell. I sold it in 2000 so I could start building my '32.
Hmm, I think you're right....Quote:

I just noticed the nice work around the top of the windshield to eliminate the visor. Can you post a closer view? I would like to see how that was done. Thanks.
I vote for the chrome smoothie. There's nothing like a chrome shell on a Model A.
My 29 shell is painted to match the body. My 30 is polished stainless. Both look good (to me anyway), so it kind of depends on what you like.
OK, I've tossed it around a bit and I've decided to go with a plated smooth style (no cap or crankhole) :cool:
Now the question is where should I get it from?
Speedway never got back to me when I inquired about a smooth style shell and I'd rather not deal with the folks of Fleabay :rolleyes:

I put a chrome shell on Sue's R/P, It looked better than a painted one.

What kind of stone guard are you using? (close up pix?)
There is no stonegaurd fitted i'm afraid.
