Frank makes the side covers and the points covers. He has some nice metal covers available if you want a more durable cover. The painted covers can be scratched and if it is a scratch deep enough to remove plastic you are going to need to refinish. The clear window adds a very cool touch and at night you can see the points opening and closing spark.
His side covers are phenomenal and very very nice reproductions. All the plastics are injected molded and made in the USA from Frank's designs. He has created and offered them to members for a discounted price.
Lots of members had cheered him on to create the metal covers and he worked for months and painstakingly did so to creat a cover that would clear the points or electronic ignitions that were popular . This was done at great expense as there were several iterations to get the metal covers to be thin enough and match precisely the cases. Then when the machining production runs had been finished most of those covers remained Un-purchased leaving Frank with a financial outlay for their production and a container with all these covers and crickets was the reply to his message of them being available. That was a kick in the gut!
