Yes, it has 31 features but I also think something is "OFF" about that indented firewall. The shape of the indent does not look correct and has nothing to do with the reflection of the manifolds. The gas shutoff valve is not a Model A valve. Might be a restoration that started with a chassis and title. Body and other sheet metal came afterwards. Or two cars were made into one. Might even be a homemade "indent" in the firewall to facilitate using 31 tank. Just my opinion but worthy of investigation to somebody seriously considering this vehicle.
