Here's my typical scratchbuilt system, on a 61 Impala (Lindberg body). Hours of fun with styrene! CT @Claude Thibodeau Pretty fancy. I like, but way to complicated for this old boy. I don't think I'm smart enough to build hinges like that. Here's my simple take. I make mine out of all brass, so if something doesn't line up or work right, I can pop it loose and re-position it easily. Just my simple way.

Claude Thibodeau Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Hi David! Well, I beg to differ with you. Your brasswork is proof that you ARE smart enough to buil more "complicated" parts. Fine work on the coupe and the Impala! CT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
