'30 Model A Coupe - update 5 August

[maltsr]

I'm building the new Revell kit basically out of the box.  The front suspension is lowered, the engine has been wired and I'll be changing the wheels and tyres.   Paint is Duplicolour Red Metallic, which needs polishing to smooth it off some more (I much prefer Tamiya rattlecans).  The more observant may notice that the cowl lip has been removed. This blown version certainly has a lot of induction!

I like the color too! Lookin' good so far. The '30 coupe is a very nicely engineered kit, everything falls into place and the parts fitment is just about perfect.

Making good progress on the Model A. Fortunately I picked up that the blower belt is incorrectly shown in the instructions.  The interior is painted to match the exterior and cleared with Testor's Dullcote.  I've abandoned the plan for whitewalls and decided to go with the kit wheels/tyres.

Looks awesome. That angle makes the blower look as big as the engine!
