Popular Post Sycamore67 Posted June 16, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 16, 2023 (edited) This is something I have been working on for two years. I would work on it for awhile, get stuck on something and then come back later. It was a combination of a plan and actual drawings of the car. A lot of different tools were used but many cut with my scrollsaw. The fenders were compound cut and then shaped. The difficult part was fitting the fenders to the curved body. The Spoke wheels were a huge challenge and I made many bad ones before figuring it out.L Edited June 16, 2023 by Sycamore67 Roberta Moreton, Dave Monk, goldfish and 17 others 13 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerry walters Posted June 16, 2023 Report Share Posted June 16, 2023 WOW Larry, that is really cool. Looks like it came from a model kit. Did you have to purchase some additional tools to do this? Jerry danny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrappile Posted June 17, 2023 Report Share Posted June 17, 2023 That is awesome, well done. Models are a real fun build. Like you it is something I work on off and on over a long period of time. I just purchased a model "T" plan a few weeks ago. That will be project number 3 that I work on sometimes. I am getting old, I have got to step it up some.

preprius Posted June 17, 2023 Report Share Posted June 17, 2023 wow, are there 3 layers of spokes? Is each spoke is a separate piece? 5 rims and tires. I am totally impressed.

Sycamore67 Posted June 28, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2023 Thanks for all the kind comments. It was an enjoyable but challenging project. My dad and I rebuilt a 1929 Model A when I was in high school. It was a great learning experience . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
