I recently went from model A to a 1936 3w and the difference in those 4 years from 1931 to the 1935-40 chassis wise is incredible. 1935-39 would be my choice also because of styling and floor shift.

Oh my gosh beautiful car! I absolutely love the three window coupes, '35-'
36's you can't go wrong with them and yes, those early flathead Fords are WAY above and beyond a Model A Ford as far as driving and such,, a lot more road worthy!
LOVE your car that is super cool!!
