Nobody makes the parts to do a correct ‘39 deluxe coupe. Nobody makes the dash, or the banjo steering wheel, that I know of.It’s also almost impossible to find the ‘39 headlights without a big notch in them, where they were ripped from the tree. The 39/40 sedan kit has a hood that could be detailed to look like a ‘39, but they are hard to get your hands on. I’ve worked two trades with theoretically pretty knowledgeable modelers, and got a deluxe ‘40 hood both times.
This is one of the first kits I built back in the day. My uncle had a ‘39 deluxe sedan, and pointed out all the shortcomings of the kit. It’s also one of my numerous pet peeves.
