I am considering making a mold to replace my transmission cover in the 53 4AD. I have a functional cover now but not pretty. It would not be worth making a mold to do one, and wonder if there is any interest from other members in obtaining one. It would make the new parts out of fiberglass. Let me know if there is any interest.
thanks

Re: Transmission Cover
Hi Steve,
I could use one too for my '54 4AD but what do you think the cost will end up being per unit?

Re: Transmission Cover
Thanks for those that replied. The mold would be somewhat complicated and the finished item would not be exactly like the original. Some "negative" surfaces would have to be changed in order to remove the cover from the mold. I would have to use my cover as the master to make the mold and hopefully not destroy it in the process. I don't think I would go ahead with the project unless I get at least 5 people interested. As far as cost goes, I really do not know. Most of the cost will be in the labor. I am still looking at the project and will try to work up an estimated cost. If any of you have an idea of what you would pay, or what others have paid, it might help in making a decision.
thanks
