    Volvo VN 780

    This is my first foray into this type of kit,i found it at my local recycling shop the chassis is moulded in one witch saves a lot.

    So far most of the chassis has been done and its going together well.

                    Heres my next batch of pics,i have got the chassis finished and some nice shiny bits on and next i will be starting on the cab.

                    No engine to do on this one witch is a bit annoying.:-(

                      Good work Peter. Shame about the lack of engine, but looking at the box art it would be hidden anyway.

                        This will be the last updates for a bit due to losing my mojo.

                        I have just started on the cab with the dash finished.
