Shiny parts wanted; MPC #606 Tognotti's T and Palmer 1961 Volvo P1800

Tognotti's T; grille shell. Same might be in other MPC T's that used chassis parts from #606. From the Palmer, I need the entire chrome tree but most need the grille and front/rear bumpers. Chrome condition not important. I have a US shipping address and parts to trade.

Could the radiator from the ICM Model T Ford kits work on the Tognotti T? Or, are they too big?

Looks like the Tognotti chassis/fenders and radiator were used in the equally rare MPC Paddy wagon, so it will be a hunt for that too.

The MPC Switchers Model T kits, have a Chopped 1908-1915 Square T Rad Shell, as do the "Chuck Miller Fire Engine" & the Outcast Showrods.

That is all the Square style Model T Radiators in kit form I can think of on short notice.

I may have a Switcher's Shell if you want one.

Interesting, I didn't realize the Paddy Wagon and the Tognotti T shared parts.

Thanks for the idea looking at the "Switchers" kits. Judging from the instructions for the AMT reissue of the 25T, both grille shells seems to be in that kit. And I have 2, somewhere... Time to go digging. Incidentally, reason for asking was that I have all body parts from the 1913 ICM kit apart from just the grille shell.

I had one of those Premier Volvo kits stolen from my table at a swap meet a few years ago.... Couldn't believe that someone would steal such a bad kit.

Would've understood it, if the contents were left on the table and only the box gone, which is pretty nice BTW.?
