junkyardjeff Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 My next new build will be the 40 standard coupe but I do not want to build it stock,I think the convertible version is more of a hotrod so can parts be interchange between those two kits. Then maybe a stock convertible could be built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis Lacy Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 The ‘40 Coupe has been issued a couple of times as a stand alone hot rod kit using the identical wheels, chassis and engine pieces as the Convertible. Also, the Convertible has been issued as a factory stock version a couple of times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RancheroSteve Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 These are really nice kits - well-engineered and detailed. I'm using the chassis and running gear for the '36 Ford that I'm building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
