A lil progress over the weekend.
This is the engine out of the YM 48 pickup. The air cleaner is off a 53 pickup. Plug wires on, fuel line. I KNOW!! ... the wires are big, I used what I had on hand, I'll make a trip to the electronics store before my next and get the right sizes. cut the original molded in dist and made one.
Painted everything, trans, intake, belts, carb, block etc. I had to brush the block using Tamiya red. I wanted to spray it, but could only find Bright Red in spray, it looked too orange to me.
First time using the Tamiya acrylics.... seem to dry too fast to me, brush stroke hell. I guess I need to learn how to use'm
Got the chassis painted gloss black, need to wait a lil to dry before I mask and paint the inner panels semi gloss black, I'll post some pics later.
Comments .......
Till next .....
