    Heller Citroen 1/8 Scale Build

    OK boys, thanks for your comments...

    I'll begin with this build from the start then....

    I'll try to make it amusing & useful, showing many tips & solutions I came by during this build...

    I have to warn you this will be a very long term issue...:nono:

    For making the postings in an orderly fashion, I will number them with a digit and a letter, the first of them being "Heller Citroen 1/8 Build 1 - A"....And so on....

    Consider this post as an opening page, so we will start showing the kit's parts...ready?...

    Let's go then...

    These are a few sprues of parts that come with the kit....a total of 1052 parts are there in the box, and when you first open it, it's mind boggling!!

    There's a pic of the manual too, which is made of exploded views of all the subassemblies, with such a quality, you'd swear you're looking at a factory booklet...

    In the first assembly posting, we will begin assembling the engine...

    Thanks for viewing...:grinball2:

      I'm sure we're going to find this fascinating if your pictures of the engine are anything to go by.

              Hello Mario

              Came across your build description of the Citroen 1/8.Absolutely terrific .

              Could you let me know if you had problems with the suspension,not being strong to hold the body(someone mentioned this during my searches).

              Also I would like to know how you finished the interior and doors.I was thinking of using vinyl?Thanks .You have given me a lot of ideas.

              Regards Steve

                  Hello Mario!

                  Been rather quiet for a long time. Hope it has not got the better of you.

                  Would really love to see what you been up to since the last posts.
