You would want to join the Secrets of Speed Society.I don't have the address here at home, but get it out of your Restorer magazine - they have an ad.Pete Wesler at Auto Care has some speed parts (like headers) and Danny Price has some more (heads, manifolds, hi-output oil pump, etc.)There is a place in CA called "The Ford Barn" that makes a reasonably priced fiberglass copy of a Morton-Brett body and Rootleib makes a speedster kit for the model A in the platform style.I think that Hudson Wagon Works used to market a set of plans for a platform speedster, as well.Other than that, you're on your own.The guys that run the Stu-Nato car in the GAR have built a lovely little body, with the Indy style staggered-seat arrangement that has so enchanted my husband that he's talking about building a new body using that feature.He's built four speedster bodies - two Mercury copies and two original designs - but his time is booked until well into next year with other body projects, so he couldn't build one for you until then, even if you wanted to pay his price.Call me at work and I can start you with some phone numbers - don't have them here.
