Thanks, guys. Thought I'd upload a pic of the breakdown. Gives you an idea of the cuts. Chassis got chopped right in front of the rear fenders and trimmed off what would be the length of the front doors which I cut off the body. The window posts were moved back. The hood was shortened, which meant I had to shim, trim, and putty the top the mate up with the firewall. A bunch of other little trims, pinches and fills to get things to line up. I left enough roof overhang to be a bit cartoonish. The interior sits on supports inside the body. Applejack hat is epoxy putty. But really, the hardest part was creating some sort of rear axle/spring to give it the proper stance. If anyone's interested, I try to upload a pic. Also of note, Mr. Deal's illo has the taillight on the right, mine is on the left.

I used a Revell 31 Ford Model A Sedan Hot Rod 2n1 I had picked up somewhere for cheap (crushed box). The headlights are from a '34, with pearl button lenses, mounted on an inverted front suspension bar.
