I decided to start a new Project......
One of the cars we are all waiting for !
I chose to use the 908 as a base due to the fact that
.1 I could'nt get/use anything else and
.2 the measure ments are just spot on ;-)
The body lengths are identical, the width too.
Dimensions
Peugeot 908:
Longueur 4610mm
Largeur 2000 mm
Empattement 2950 mm
Aston Lola B06 09:
? Length: 4634mm (+1mm)
? Width: 1990mm (-0.8mm)
? Wheelbase: 2890mm (+3.5mm)
The only dimensiolnal difference is the wheel base
and in 1:24 were talking 3,5mm and the Aston has about
that much more front overhang... so - EASY PEASY
Want this to be a QUICKY so no real explanations but lots
of PIX... they speak louder than words anyway
more to follow ....

So .... Finally!
2.5 Weeks _ from a Peugeot 908 HDI FAP to a Lola-Aston Martin B09/60, aka Aston Martin DBR1-2.
Got the body looking more or less ok, reworked the wheel arches and had to remove some material above the front axle holders, Air brushed the Aston
Blue and masked off and sprayed on the Orange.... The dark blue separation lines (btw. Blu & Or) were cut out from a plain blue decal sheet, the Gulf
and Michelin decals are left overs from an old project. The front lip, side air boxes and the side sills I covered with carbon decal so "All" I have
to do now, is add windows, build an interior, marry the body to the chassis make a spoiler with Holders, ......
Enjoy the pics ;-)

Thanks Mr T!!!
update:
Put on a fresh clear coat and now Lilly is looking real slick!
HAve to carbonize the rear wing , and marry the body to the chassis and then
add all the stuff I always add and nobody really needs ;-)
