Further tales of plastic butchery!

Moving back to the Scania 143H I need to catch this build up with the other Scania so I spent an hour or so dealing with the mudguards, front valance and side skirts. The mudguards were fairly straight forward as was the front valance. Clean parts up and glue together. 

The side skirts though were a different matter.  They require shortening to fit the shortened chassis so it was out with the razor saw and taking a deep breath the cutting or my case butchery commenced. 

It went reasonably well - surprisingly! The picture above shows one side skirt shortened and the amount that had to be taken out. Next stage is to get all these parts painted up so hopefully this weekend might see that commence unless Mrs. W has other plans!
