1929 Model A Roadster ArtDeco/Coachbuilt/Streamliner -DONE!
modelmatt replied to Impalow's topic in WIP: Model Cars
That was way over the top. Great eye for detail, looking forward to seeing more.. -
Thanks for the great info. Tape is the only solution at this point (pieces glued in place and pulleys are too close to the belt cover) Hopefully I can make it work. Love the pics by the way....

Thanks, it does include the light. I got it from Micro-Mark. Lot of cool stuff and small tools there. -
Dam, I made the belt guard the belt. I thought the bands were just to hold the frame together after it was glued. No wonder the pulleys didn't line up with the so called belt. MY Bad. I should be able to fix. Thanks.......

Thanks for all the input, I thought I put the belts on wrong. They only went on 1 way. I'm trying hard not to screw this build up. The instructions are the worst to work with, I have to take extra time before gluing. I will take more pics as it progresses.

That's true Ted, The drive belt was hard plastic that I covered with black electrical tape. There was no option to run it inside the tensioners. Thanks for the reply.

It does get dirty but I clean up after every build. Dusty areas and airbrushing don't mix. LOL -

I joined because of the fantastic builds I have viewed on this site. I am trying to get more realistic with my builds and with every build, it's getting better. I am 60 now and still love building model cars. The passion started when I was a teenager. I thought I was getting good with detail until I saw the builds on this site. I still have a lot to learn. I will share what I have experienced and what I can learn from you, you never stop trying to get better. I will post some of my builds and hopefully get some new ideas. I learned a lot through u-tube and Don Yost dvd's and hope to learn more through your help. Thanks for reading. Hope we can help each other!
