Model A replica? any model A experts here?
Back in the seventies (I think) there was a fellow, maybe Canadian, who decided to build brand new exact replicas of the model A, using all new replica parts. It was stock except for the engine which was a flathead ford but was built to provide twice the power of the original unit as it was built for driving pumps and such.
Seems like he had to build a new transmission case, or reusing the case with new innards because nobody was building them.
It was named after the builder....something like Tremulus maybe...
Anyway, I saw one for sale recently but now cannot find the advertisement for it.
I believe it was a roadster.
It was featured in one of the magazines....in my mind perhaps Mechanics Illustrated.
I have searched but cannot find anything about it.
