Ford A at Nandos engine Lr
Although it features a grille shell from the popular 1932 Ford, this is a 1930 or 1931 Model A body riding atop a Model A frame.
In this photo it is easier to see that the engine is still a 4-cylinder flathead but with Zepher intake manifold and twin Stromberg carburetors added.
The vertical plane in which the headlight lenses sit is clearly in front of the grille. This is good practice in customizing cars with individual nacelles. Otherwise the car takes on an odd ‘one-eyed’ appearance in viewing angles such as this.
