Salt flat racer builders

[voljeepx]

Can anybody help me with a few questions about Bonneville style cars? I have been scouring the internet for vintage photos and have decided I want to build a few of these great racers. I would like to do a So-Cal Speed Shop style '34, but where can I get a track nose for the front? I know the '29(?) Model A kit came with one, but are there other options? How about tires and wheel covers? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Ed

Didn't Model Car Garage used to have a resin track style nose w/ a photo etch grille inlay?

Ed , short of modifiying a Revell 1929 Model A truck nose with a lot of Bondo and mabye widing the darn thing out , I dunno what to say. You might call Norman Veeber on the phone at Replicias and Miniatures of Maryland . Yes , he does talk on the phone as wev'e had several conversations . He's in the D C area as in Rockville Maryland ......Ed Shaver
