Help. How do you make --Wire Ties/Braided hoses-- engine compartement?

[adabiri2]

New to all this but Im not also. I have a 1/24 scale Lincoln Mark 8 Pro Street model.

Plan to do braided hoses/AN fittings etc. Haven't really found any specifics on these hoses but to go to a aftermarket website and buy them. The craft store had too much wire and bead crimps and stuff for me to decifier the correct sizes. Prob get a aftermarket distributor for sure.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!!!!!!!! Great site.

Probably a good idea to buy the aftermarket pieces. Then take them to the craft store and find what best replicates the aftermarket parts and then buy enough for forever.

I hear lots of really good things about Pro-Tech stuff and have seen some results in person. Very nice stuff, but expensive. Get your distributor from Fatkidd. He's a member here and I think sells his distributors for $3.00.
