Hardtarget Posted August 25, 2011 Author Share Posted August 25, 2011 Update Been busy with this tonka, quick asembly of the pit using xtracrylix. Added the decals and appropriate nozse weight. A quick prime and assembly of some smaller parts. And here she sits as of the other day. The adustable bar was sealed via a screwdriver and candle method to allow it to swing. The underside has been primed white but i ran out to do the underwings so off to halfords tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacksdad Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Priming before you put on the intakes? Good luck. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardtarget Posted August 26, 2011 Author Share Posted August 26, 2011 Steve, already primed mate, with the little bits. A bit of surfacer around them with a little sanding should do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
