Sounds like a good reason to show it with the doors open to show they open.

Update : I have removed the roof  , and so proceeded to add some interior bracing for visual effect. My many fans will realize that any resemblance to actual Model A bracing is purely accidental.   |

This morning, I did some detailing and weathering on the chicken wire assembly, and mounted the headlight brackets that I had made from the model A's rear bumper brackets .  |

Along with doing some other things, I made a tail light out of a 1:24 Chev hubcap and a large lens from the custom ones that were in the 50 Ford. almost still too big for this scale !  |

Knee Dr. tomorrow !!! 
I have been laying low to avoid a complication that had occurred that might mean they'd have to do it all over. As it is, they'll have to open the knee up again anyway after it's totally healed, to remove the wires that broke.
I did sneak out to the studio once and drilled lightening holes in the visor.

Maybe they could use some of your Chicken Wire on the knee.

Knee Dr today.
Broken wire hasn't changed. If I can keep babying it for 6 more weeks, the knee may have healed enough for the wires to be removed.
Dr acknowledged he uses bolt cutters to cut that wire !
I have a brace that I think I'll use so I can go out and do stuff. Sitting in the house sucks big time.
It's 84° here in Florida !!
