First prototype formed replacement for the Hurricane center ramp. PETG, thicker than the original. Pricing will be announced in a day or two. In addition to offering just the ramp with new flap installed (assumes you move/rivet the three metal brackets from your old ramp), I will also offer the base ramp with all three new brackets installed. If you are up for the task of removing your 3 brackets...and mailing to me...I will install them for free....just purchase the base ramp. If there is any interest I will also offer a new plastic cover for the ramp....to replace your broken or faded original.

I will begin taking orders Monday, June 20th.

Finally!!! A completed ramp!

I made some subtle changes in the ramp. Both of the two samples I had were cracking at the upper mounting points, so I left a little more "meat" around those mounting points. Two of the photos below show a weak point in the original design near the drop hole. Also shown is the new ramp with a change to eliminate the cracking point. Also cleaned up the lines in this area as well.

Every ramp I do is a new challenge. This Hurricane center ramp has been, let's say, difficult. Lot's of twists and turns and must be finished out by hand. At the moment I have only 5 completed with 4 left to finish on this first run.....then I'm going to take a break!
Ramp is thicker than the original and I was able to improve a couple weak spots and improve the lines and appearance around the drop hole.
So...final pricing...
I'm going to offer this as simply a ramp with a new flap attached whereby you would rivet mount the three metal pieces. I am also going to offer new metal pieces riveted to the ramp. If you want to purchase the base ramp and send me the three pieces attached to your ramp, I will mount them on a new ramp for FREE.
Base ramp, everything pre-drilled with new flap $140
Options....
1. Send me the three metal pieces riveted to your ramp and I will rivet to the new ramp $FREE
2. New metal brackets riveted to the ramp $15
3. New clear cover (Lexan) $14
Shipping (Domestic US) $15
This first run will only be for 9 ramps so first come first serve.
I'm on my second Modelo now!
I'll post more photos tomorrow.

Added over 7 years ago: UPDATE ON PRICING.... The Lexan ramp cover is Now FREE with the purchase of the ramp!
