Duval windshield?


Recommended Posts

I know RMCoM had one, but I was under the impression it was NOT designed for the Revell kit. Can anyone verify? Someone that bought one maybe, if not I'll contact Norm directly.

Mike that kit on your link was not built using the roadster kit, but rather a modified coupe.

The reason I ask, is because the body is painted and I want to make sure the windshield will fit using or covering the stock mounting points. If it doesn't, I'll just use the stock unit. Thanks for the help guys. Much appreciated.

Based on this photo, none of them will work for you with the body painted already. Norm's is designed to fit the Revell roadster, but you need to shave that windshield "rubber" strip off the cowl and possibly fill the post indents.

Is there an aftermarket supplier for a Vee screen (I think Duvall is one of the 'brand' names?) suitable for a Revell '32 Ford kit? I saw one in a build thread the other day, and the donor was the AMT Phantom Victoria kit, but pretty sure that I've also seen an aftermarket one somewhere, but can't find any details...

Many thanks!

Two posts here might be helpful: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=79370

One lists the parts number, the other a link to someone who used the Revell '32 Coupe and the RepMinCo Duvall windshield.

I have a few white metal DuVall's that came from (I think) SJS a jillion years ago. They did a simple one for Deuces and A's, and another for 34-36's. No pics but I have them on a Deuce tub and roadster, and a 36 phaeton (AAM) and roadster (cowl + 5 window body correct doors).

I don't know if anyone took these over, but they're awesome.
