Trouble setting up collision for Actor instance

Scripting Issues
1

Hi.
I am having trouble setting up collision. And I think the cause is that car is an instance of Actor class because I had no problem at all when i used

self.car=model.loadmodel("models/car/carnsx.egg")

Here is my code

self.car=Actor("models/car/carnsx.egg")
		self.car.reparentTo(render)
		self.car.setScale(.5)
		self.car.setPos(20,0,0)
		self.car.setH(270)

My attempt setting up collision

	self.carbody=self.car.find("**/car_body")
		
		
		self.carbody.setFromCollideMask(BitMask32.bit(1))
		self.carbody.node().setIntoCollideMask(BitMask32.alloff())
		#self.carbody.show()

Here is the error:

 File "test.py", line 99, in setupCollision
    self.carbody.setFromCollideMask(BitMask32.bit(1))
AttributeError: 'libpanda.NodePath' object has no attribute 'setFromCollideMask'

Thanks in advance.

Instead of setting both the From and Into collide masks, you can do this:

self.carbody.setCollideMask(BitMask32.bit(1))

This command will set 1 mask and reset the other, and this should do what you want, since the car is plain geometry.
