Does anyone have a source or spec for the fine wire mesh screen that was included in the first issue (clear body) MPC 1/16 scale Petty Charger kits? This was the screen used for the grille screen and the screen under the front bumper. Or what is everyone using for grille screens on 71 - 74 1/24 - 1/25 scale Chargers?

I've been able to find small-mesh stainless and brass screens on e-Bay, pretty reasonably. Sorry I don't have a current source, haven't needed any in a while.

Do you remember the sizing you got? Wire size and mesh?

Thanks,

No idea, it's not labeled but what I have is too small a mesh for 1/16 scale. I'm guessing its about 400 mesh, you probably would want 100 to 200 mesh for the larger scale.
