Thanks much guys !
If anyone is missing parts to build a Little T , look for a Revell Boomer T-Bucket ( the one with the trailer ) . It has the correct parts minus the engine , wheels and tires .
Thanks Skip ! It was very hard to resist modifying it , but I'm really glad I didn't . If they ever re-issue the Little T , I bet it would be a big seller !
I also remember polishing parts with toothpaste way back when . It was a tip I saw in an issue of Car Model .
