I used to own a '39 DeLuxe myself, and must admit, I didn't know either till I saw the picture on Post #3 above. Wish I had that '39 again!

I am now working on these. I was able to successfully model in 3D cad. Much to do: finish the inside mounting tab detail, make molds, etc. No time frame, no price estimate yet. When ready I will announce in the new products thread.


Photos are of an original and the first plastic model. Note the discoloration in the middle of the model is where I had to weld two halves together as my printer is not big enough for single print.
