1929 Model A sleeper

This is really cool.

It sounds angry. Really angry. And man, it's hauling ass on thosewooden-spoke wheels on a winding road through the beautiful Finnishcountryside. By the time you catch up to it at a diner down the road,it's chugging, sputtering, and sounding like a standard 200.5ci L-headfour-cylinder engine. What's going on here?

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.

The wheels are aluminum and faux finished to look like wood.
