edward smith Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 Just purchased a set of Model Car Garage Stromberg Carb photo-etch detail set and would love to know if any of you guys has put one of them together. They look very difficult to build specially because of all the small linkages that have to be added. Please help!
cruz Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 As Dave says, I worked on one of these sets a long time ago, it's more of a tedious job than a difficult one, you just have to be patient and careful, those linkages are very small. Make sure to drill all your small holes first, after that it should go a little smoother. Don't pinch the small linkages too tight with the tweezers, they will go flying all over the place which means, adios, sayonara and good bye to them... I beleive they give you a few extra P/E parts with this. Below is the engine I did....
