  We investigate a proposal for the construction of models with chiral fermions
on the lattice using staggered fermions. In this approach the gauge invariance
is broken by the coupling of the staggered fermions to the gauge fields. We aim
at a dynamical restoration of the gauge invariance in the full quantum model.
If the gauge symmetry breaking (SB) is not too severe, this procedure could
lead in the continuum limit to the desired gauge invariant chiral gauge theory.
