hood shelves
Are the repop hood shelves any good? Should I try finding originals for my tudor or go with new ones?

Re: hood shelves
Look for originals. Reproduction shelves require modifications to fit. You can spend a few hours restoring originals knowing that they will fit, instead of spending money and having to make modifications and cuts. Keep in mind you need to look for a matched set as there are four different ones used in 1928-29.

if you do decide to go with repros, they appear to me to be made from a '28 design, or in any event you will have to trim the front edges of surplus metal, which I did with a Dremel cut-off wheel. Originals had practically no lip on the front edges for several inches. |
