I wanted to put a flathead V-8 in my wife's 1930 Model A Roadster but she said no. I'll dream about putting an OHV conversion 4 Banger until I can get the $15 grand for it. I'll probably just have to settle for a high compression head.
The A pictured above and in the video even has a 'misfire' switch to make it sound more model A like at stoplights and such.... that's a sleeper.
