Autocar reborn
gotnitro? replied to gotnitro?'s topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
No side wing on this build only because it won't fit in my display Thanks ! Really enjoy making an autocar look unique. It needs a coat of sealer then the fun can begin -

Today I painted the entire set of chains and hung them. Giving them a rub of gunmetal powder after tamiya primer gave a nice flash rusted sheen to them. I still need to add side boards, plow chains and then weather it up -

Thanks Jim feels good to be working on larger parts awhile lol Thanks Brian this run took awhile getting the spacing right. My first try were too far apart, the next short mockup of 6 bars were too close ..finally they landed on baby bear -

Whew I really slacked off on this build ! Guess the squirrels are contagious this year lol I hated the telephone pole mirror mounts, so I replaced them w 030 rod. I'll polish some thumb tacks for spotter mirrors too. Another detail I was sorting out was the cold weather air cleaner plumbing. They have a flex pipe coming off engine going to air cleaner..I found some 12g wire perfect for the purpose. Ill wrap it w tamiya tape later. The squirrels must've messed w my clock, cause the next detail burned a few hrs. I planned to add tire chains early on, and finally got around to them. These still need some adjustments, but look good. Now to feed the furry rats and make the rest -
