1st 700 Quad Posted January 19, 2024 Posted January 19, 2024 (edited) Some years back, Kalmbach Publishing offered a CD with all of the back issues of SAE in pdf form. Does anyone have a copy and would be willing to search it for a specific article? I'd be interested in trading for it if anyone's interested. Thanks Steve Edited January 19, 2024 by 1st 700 Quad
Leo64 Posted January 20, 2024 Posted January 20, 2024 I have both the CDs that they did of the SA issues. What article were you looking for? I can find it and save it as a PDF and email it to you. Steve A.

They did an article about kitbashing a MPC 1932 Chevrolet Roadster and a Monogram (I know different scales) Packard Boattail Speedster to make a 1932 Chevrolet Boattail Speedster. That's the article I am searching for. Hope you can find it. Thanks Steve
Leo64 Posted January 21, 2024 Posted January 21, 2024 Hey Steven, I did a search in the first CD of SAE that covers the first 35 years from 1979-2013, and did a search using "Packard" "Boattail" and "1932 Chevy". There were a few mentions of Packards in the Collectors Corner (which was for 1/43rd scale). There was one article when I did the 1932 Chevy search that was titled "Shark Bite" about combining a 1932 Chevy and an early 60s Corvette. It was a light and darker blue color. Attached is a pic of the car from the article. Not sure if this was the model you were thinking of. The second CD covers the years from 2014-2018. and I couldn't find an article like you were describing in any of the issues.

Leo64 Posted January 21, 2024 Posted January 21, 2024 Steven, I got to wondering if maybe the article you were looking for could have been in another magazine. I went looking to see if I could find info about the old Car Modeler magazine that Kalmbach bought out. I did find an image of the Nov 1991 issue that shows an article titled " '32 Chevy Roadster How To". Not sure what the article is about. Steve A.

Guess I'll have to figure it out on my own. ? Steve
