Manufacture ID ?
Jon Haigwood replied to Jon Haigwood's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Thanks for the info and Big thanks to Muncie for the needed parts -
I am working on a project with my scrap pill parts. I am converting a 32 5 Window Cpe into a 5 window pickup. I just discovered I don't have a windshield frame for it. There are no markings that I can find but it is molded in black. I think it may be a AMT but not sure , help in identifying this would be appreciated also any tips on scratch building a frame . Thanks

Speed parts for a Model A 4 cyl,
Jon Haigwood posted a topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
Any body making vintage speed parts for a Flathead 4 ? All I see in my kits are carb and headers. I bought a 4 cyl hop up kit from R&M but it turned out to be for a "flat' 4 cyl as in VW. Gathering parts for a T.R.O.G. build. Thanks for any info provided -

I use both ,the cutter and the Xacto knife When I cut a a short piece from small tube I put a piece of wire (or something similar) into the tube so when it cuts thru the small piece won't go flying into the Twilight zone.

Stock 65 Ford Fairlane ?

I was thinking about the using the 65 Fairlane Modified body -
Thinking about replicating the 65 Ford Fairlane 2drht with a 289 that I had back in the day. I was looking at the 65 Fairlane Modified kit and thought about using the 65 Mercury Comet or 65 Falcon Sprint for donor parts. Any suggestions or advice on this build ?

I use Tamiya extra thin with Evergreen dissolved in it as a filler. You can also dissolve sprue into to match the color of the models plastic. Called "sprue glue" . I have also seen CA use to prevent "shadowing" after body trim has been sanded off.

I got a bit creative and made my own out of aluminum tubing and sheet styrene for the flat ends. Started with a larger piece of of round and flattened it until I got the right shape then added the end plates and inlet/outlet pipes

32 ford trunk louvers
Jon Haigwood replied to Jon Haigwood's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Good info thanks -
Looking for trunk louvers for a 32 3 window. I thought maybe the one that comes with the 5 window might work but it is not wide enough and has the wrong curve. Any other sources available ? Thanks
