*1929 Model A Roadster*

[Zippi]

If you were following along on the build you know I was kinda fighting this the whole way or rather it was fighting me.  Didn't really have a good windshield frame to use even after buying a second kit and getting two replacement windshield frames from Revell.  The one you see in the pics is the best I could do for now.  It is just tack glued in place until Revell comes through with something good to use.  Not my best work but it's done.

Nice.  What trouble did you have?  This kit practically fell together for me.

Thanks.  All the issues I had are in my build in WIP.

My windshield frame was straight.  Only assembly issue I had was that lower radiator hose.

Yeah that lower hose was a chore.  I had to remove the radiator to get it on.

OK Bob, looks darn nice to me, don't even see the windshield problem. Great job my Friend!!?

As did I. When I do my 30 I'll attach it to the radiator first I think.

That is one sharp car Bob. I know you had your difficulties with it and all but your efforts sure paid off man. 

[TooOld]

Looks really nice to me Bob !  But that's looking at photos , you had some issues so you're probably soured on the whole thing . Just think of it as a learning experience , we've all been there .

Hmm, that may actually be easier. Good idea.

Nicely done. Once again your persistence has prevailed. Hopefully your next build will go smoother.

Thanks Bob.  I appreciate your comments.  I'm working on a 32 Sedan Delivery and like my granddaddy use to say....hope for the best and expect the worst.

Great looking roadster. You did overcame some issues with this build but you would never know it now. 

[bluestringer]

Looks great. You did a good job despite the problems you had. Haven't started mine yet, waiting to hear from Revell about that windshield frame. 

[spencer1984]

Very tidy, that looks great!

[Zippi]

Thanks Dave, James, and Bill.  I really appreciate the kind words fella's.

[Airwreck]

Looks great!
