ScalemodelMadnessDan Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 The next kit on the build list is this lovely Peugeot 905 EV1 Bis by Heller, which my wife picked up for my birthday a few months ago 👍 lets see how this one turns out 😁 I've read a few kit reviews on this which are very mixed, so we will see how it goes 👍 Here is the box art. All the sheets are there and with very little flashing. Finished putting together the engine block 👍 added some powder filler to help with the final result. Prepped and glued some more engine parts, also build up the rear axle and suspension for priming, but boy it's a pain 😠 One of rear air vent flips broke when removing it from the sheet 😟 need to fix that. Rear air vents fixed and ready. Cut off the lower rear wishbones and will be replaced with styrene rods so that they will fit better. Air vents now fitted to the rear axle, again that was not easy 😥 parts kept moving around when gluing. Tyres are now scuffed up. Removed the centre locking nuts and will replace them with some better looking ones. That's it for now, hope you all like the progress so far and post some more update soon 😉 Also check in to my Facebook page for daily updates on this build : Scalemodel Madness 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
