drag racer 15 Posted September 14, 2019 Posted September 14, 2019 Today I bought a moebius Dyno Don Comet and as I was looking through the instructions I noticed a couple of typos 1.The fuel pump is labeled feul pump 2. In the final assembly stage it says Arnie Beswick 1965 A/FX comet has anyone else noticed this?
Force Posted September 15, 2019 Posted September 15, 2019 (edited) They use the same basic instructions for both the Arnie Beswick car and the Dyno Don car, except for different head picture on the instructions, decals and boxart both kits are the same. The "feul" I can live with and it says the same in the Beswick instructions, but I find it more intriguing that on the drawing it looks like the starter should go in between the water pump and cam drive cover but in the text it says that it goes to the right side of the engine...but not where, and that side of the engine is not not shown in any of the pictures so if you don't know how it looks on a real engine you get no clue of the right position. The correct position is of course on the right (passenger) side of the engine beside the crank case at the front of the bell housing. Moebius Models may do nice model kits and the instructions for their kits are flashy and printed on good glossy paper, but they are not the easiest to understand as they have quite vague drawings and explanations. If you compare the Moebius instructions for the International Lone Star and Pro Star truck kits and the instructions for the Revell Germany rebox of the same kits you can see what I mean, Revell did their own instructions for these kits and they are much clearer and easier to follow than the Moebius instructions.
