Hard Top Stand

[steelblue5505]

The beautiful 1:18 diecast models the Frits has created in all the retro T-Bird colors comes with the removable HT. I wanted to display my model with the HT off but along side the car as if it was on a stand just like what Ford provided for the real deal.

Here is a few photos of how it turned out.

Re: Hard Top Stand

I've been using my sewing machine more lately. I will have to see about doing a cover.

questions? does it roll? or does it have wheel locks?

Dot,
No where the wheels are suppose to be are just very small pieces of wood.
There is probably wheels out in the modeling market that could work but I did not look for any.


To Lonestar: look for a PM from me

Re: Hard Top Stand

Ok Mike, how about letting out the secret for the rest of us who would like to build the hard top stand for the beautiful models Frits built for us. What did you use to build it?? Your stand is the perfect accessory.
