LF a 1/48 Monogram skyraider windscreen

[trietmcam]

greeting,

 

I'm in need of a wndscreen, as the one in the kit has spider cracks beyond reparable. I have an extra one from Tamiya, but it will not fit, too wide. If you will part with one, I can compensate for the cost. TY

What kit manufacture is the windscreen for? 

 

[trietmcam]

The 1/48 Monogram kit. Sorry I didn't realized to mention.

I thought I had one as I parted one years ago but must have given it to someone else as some point. Good luck on your search.

There is a seller at eBya that is offering a pair of Vacuum-Formed Skyraider canopies that you might want to consider:

Thanks for the heads up. I saw that Jeff, but I'm going to use that as last option. That looks like the Falcon canopy. I think it has the same error as the monogram. The center windscreen should be flat, not curve. That's what got me into trouble in the first place. I was sanding the center region flat when I dropped it on the floor and cracked it. I'm going to make a new mold and form a new vacform piece.

Good luck with the windscreen!  

 

There was another seller on eBay offering the clear parts for the Tamiya A-1H and A-1J but the price was as much as or more than what the MSRP was on the Monogram Skyraider kit.

Hi Triet,

 

Do you still need the windscreen?
