Re: A question for model A and T purists.
Frank, The answer depends on what you wish to do with the finished product. I've got 30 years as an AACA National judge, so I've seen my share of restored and OVER restored cars. Over restored in my opinion is not going to gain any points in a judged situation, you might loose points. If you just want a smooth better than ever built for your own enjoyment go for it. As an aside I'm restoring an early 1960's front engined rail and I've gone to the trouble of saving all the weld spatter from the original stick welding. It held a National Record in the day with the welds, the restoration will highlight them and other authentic build features. This should be a good thread to fiollow, thanks for posting it. Bob
