There's plenty here to mix and match with the newer '29 roadster and '30 coupe kits.

YEP! May the kit-bashing commence!!!  I ordered one each of the '29 Model A Roadster and the '30 Model A Coupe kits just for this purpose, a Roadster Pickup with the injected Buick Nailhead from the '30 Model A Coupe kit and a Closed Cab Pickup with the blown Small Block Chevy and the Halibrand Wheels from the '29 Model A Roadster kit.

What Tim W. said above!!!   TB

PS - Here's an example of his point.  This is a kitbashed MCM cover car from a couple of years back...and I may have used the original MPC Model A roadster pickup cab instead of the Revell kit counterpart (to avoid dealing with the Revell kit the opening doors), but it shows the potential for a kitbashed model based on the newish Revell Model A Hot Rod Roadster and 5WC chassis combined with the body off this new Revell reissue of the Model A Roadster PIckup/Closed Cab Pickup kit...TB

Looks like this one has a grille from a 32. I'm definiltely doing that. First thing I'm tossing is the '29 grille. Not a fan of the 29!

If your interested, I started a thread on the chopper build.
