philo426 Posted July 24, 2018 Posted July 24, 2018 Ok starred this metal kit.the metal parts had heavy flash and pour stubs so grinding and filing are necessary.Getting ready to primer and paint.Never made a brass era car before...
Renegade Posted July 25, 2018 Posted July 25, 2018 Looking good Phillip. Look forward to seeing this one completed.
stavanzer Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 A tip. You might want to think about de-chroming those wire wheels. Painted wheels would be more period correct. As for the rest of your build, it is Superb! Keep On Truckin'
philo426 Posted July 26, 2018 Author Posted July 26, 2018 I was thinking they are a bit garish,I might paint them dark red like the body.
philo426 Posted July 27, 2018 Author Posted July 27, 2018 Installed the engine,driveshaft,exhaust,radius rods and fender supports.
Belugawrx Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 something strange about that wheelbase, I think... shouldn't the tires be under the fenders...? That silver spacer is floating them out too far I think anyways...I like the blood red or Maroon..?
philo426 Posted July 27, 2018 Author Posted July 27, 2018 Custom mix I call Monsoon Maroon!The kit did not have enough of the proper screws so I had to use what I had on hand ,thus the use of the spacers.

philo426 Posted July 29, 2018 Author Posted July 29, 2018 The instructions would have you mount the spare on the fender,but I did not like that,so I used a chrome dragster steering yoke as spare tire mount.
