Can anyone here tell me if any aftermarket company makes or made STOCK louvered hood side panels for the Monogram 1:24 '34 Ford (ZZ-Top)? I’m looking for replicas of the panels as they came in the original issue of the 1934 Ford kit… resin would be OK. IMHO, Monogram would do well to re-release this version of the kit, assuming, of course, that they haven’t BUTCHERED the original molds. This was a really nice kit.
Have you tried using the panels from AMT/ERTL’s 34 Ford kit? I know, it is 1/25, but sometimes the scale diffrence isn’t there. And if it is, you could add sheet plastic and a little putty to make em bigger. I might have a extra pair around. I didn’t use them on the street rod I’m doing. It’s just a matter of finding them in my mess downstairs. I’ll let you know when I do.
