Re: 1928 Tudor interior panels?

Not anything to do by yourself. You should have someone with you holding the strip above the door. I recommend not seating them all the way at first either. If you need to adjust the panel, you...

Re: Molding strips - 1928 Tudor

Larry,

Hubley Screw Set

I bought a Hubley 1931 Phaeton model at our monthly business meeting. To my chagrin, the screw set was missing. Does anyone know what sizes and how many are needed to assemble this model?
