Default 1930 Model A Tool box

Hi
I'm trying to find the sloped tool box that mounted in below radiator grill for a 1930 coupe. They were discontinued couple years ago. Only square box available now. Any one have one for sale or know where to buy? Thanks Gary

Wow....too bad they were discontinued. I have them on 3 of my cars. They blended so well between the front fenders it almost looked liked original equipment.

There was a recent thread on this and the maker of the tool box wrote the reasons he discontinued making them.

I made my own. They are not difficult but if you think your skills are not up to it, I'd be disappointed if there was nobody prepared to help.

Can we see a picture of one you made? It may help give someone an idea how to build one.
