Jim B Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I am looking for the muffler bracket in this kit: It's #37 in this diagram: I'm really hoping that it wasn't on the tree with the fenders as that was so full of flash (the only tree like that, by the way) that I might have tossed it. Does anyone have this part? I tried scratch building one, but that was an exercise in futility. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruckerAL Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 I don't think I have that exact piece, but I may have one from a diamond reo that would work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted July 7, 2022 Author Share Posted July 7, 2022 I have no idea. The cabs are the same, so I would think so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrKerry Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 May be able to cut them from sheet plastic too.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted July 7, 2022 Author Share Posted July 7, 2022 I tried to make the part from plastic stock, but it was not successful. This is what I need: This is from the Autocar DC Dump Truck kit, but I can't scavenge this part as I'll need it for that kit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gotnitro? Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Sorry I don't have any kicking around..but you have a perfect pattern for making one. Tiny dot of ca glue and laminate that onto some scrap plastic then sand to the profile. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted July 8, 2022 Author Share Posted July 8, 2022 (edited) It's worth a shot, I guess. With my luck I'll never be able to get them apart. 😄 Edited July 8, 2022 by Jim B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
