Default What exactly am I getting myself into?

Its quite pretty, to be sure. And it TOTALLY fits my Brewery Logo- BootleggersBrewingCo.com in Tampa, FL.

It was....exasperating to get it running right, but it purrs like a kitten now with the TBI conversion. I need a new radiator, and an interior, and almost certainly a power steering upgrade, what with the manual steering box being a bit flaky and not well secured to the frame.

But I'm unsure of what I've got. The title refers to it as Model 150. The parts I have replaced seem to match up mostly with a 1934, but there are some oddities. So I need some reference material to orient myself.

The Dash, for instance has a rectangular opening in the center, not oval.

And I can't for the life of me figure out WHY someone put a Chevy 350 in it? Why not a 351 or a 302?!?

SMH. Its gonna be a fun project though for sure... but the steering and suspension are gonna be next on the list.

Suggestions?

OH- and is there a way to install a radiator that doesn't have the big tank on top with the hood supports?

Suggestion: Visit the HAMB site. They deal with modified vehicles while this site is mostly stockers. https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/
