A400 Resto-mod

Here is a idea for your consideration
Look at Reno NV Craigslist...... cars for sale.
There you will find a 1931 Victoria.....that has been started in the direction you are wanting.
You might find a master in a upholstery shop to help you with the top.
If this works for you.... would seem to get you into the A very affordable.
This is not my car.... I do not know the owner.
Good luck to you. ( If you do something here let us know.)

A Phaetoria!

Sad that a somewhat rare A got hacked up but that said, I've seen worse:
