Smile 1941 Ford MCP O18T info needed

Hi Guys,

I am converting a 1/35 scale ICM German Ford V3000 kit into the Commonwealth version and as the kit has two exhaust pipes leading back to the muffler rather then the join under the motor into one pipe back to the muffler like on most Fords I have seen I thought I'd better ask.

On the Commonwealth model does the exaust join under the motor and go back to the muffler as one pipe or is the kit correct with 2 pipes back to the muffler?

Default muffler

I believe it joins under the motor and the pipe is single to the muffler ..... It was like that on my 1941 11YD anyway MIKE

I thought that was correct Mike. Looks like I will have to build one that way.

Guys has anyone photos of the firewall/engine bay area on these Fords? Need to see where the regulator, battery etc sat so I can reproduce them.

Thanks for any help
