Monogram '39 Chevy kits

[misterNNL]

I just bought a resin '39 Chevy 4 Dr sedan from Star Models to build a model of one of my dad's real cars. I need a '39 kit to complete it and never having owned any of these kits I would like to find one with stock hubcaps. Any suggestions ?

None of the 1/24 Monogram '39 Chevy kits ever included stock hubcaps/wheel covers.

Looking at the brochure, it appears they all came equipped with steel wheels and small chrome plated (or stainless steel?) hubcaps. If these are 16", I think the Goodyear Airhwheel tires from the 1/25 Revell '37 Ford Pickup and Panel Truck kits would be a good choice:

I've seen the stock Wheels/Tires from the AMT '37 Chevy used too.  Might be worth a look.

The Stock 6 Cyl I-6 from the Monogram (not Revell) 1953 Chevy can be used in the '39 also. The AMT '37 has a nice 6 too, but it might be small in the '39 engine bay. I've not tried it myself.

Thanks for the tips. This will not be a high level detail build. It will represent the first car I remember my dad owning in the 1940's. Plan on adding a trailer hitch to it and displaying as a tow vehicle with one of my many antique travel trailers.

Is the resin kit(?) 1/25 scale?
