You should lower it some, and change the wheels.
I feel ya, I see this kit all jacked up in the rear almost all the time, If it were mine to keep and I had more time, I'd do it up cool, but like I said, I had 2 day's, now my sister needs it today she was here last night, she could have picked it up, but she forgot, Now i have to deliver it!
-
The kit did come with the gold bow tie. I love blue, so I went with it! But your right Greg.

Just a box built 77 van, no paint on the exterior, Not much to show, just happy this was the first model I've been asked to build.
My sisters company did commission me to build it for advertising purposes. they will ad their company logo stickers on it, So no exterior paint. fun 2 day build and it's all ready to go to work!
Peace
Oh and yes eventually I'll run out of monkeys!

Hey!
I picked up a side project for fun and to fill the time! It's a little 1/32 scale 1976 Star Wars R2 D2 van kit, missing many part's but i though it would go great with the Moonscope thing.
This build was also Inspired by my good friends comic and children's costume play armor, Moonscope parts on this van with a tie fighter window! In a world of space exploration. it seems to fit well.
Enjoy!

I painted the goofy van today with Createx Pearl Silver. Near the finish line.

Dang... thats one smooth cruiser!

Nice Rob!
it looks very detailed.

Personally i think this is one of the more - less attractive vans out there, But you sir made it into a beautiful work of art!
Great job

Cut the axles a littlebit on both side of the diff housing.
Thanks for the tip!
I did cut off a fragment on both sides and it tucked up nicely!
Success!!
-
A problem came up, Not sure how I ended up like this... The wheelbase is now a bit too wide for the camper body,
So what do you think everyone????
Cut out the camper body and ad "fenders"?
Or work on the differential to narrow it?
-

Best of luck to those that go, and hope it turns out to be a great event

Hey Mark.
I'm not sure, The wheels are a resin set, I think the tires came with the RV, I could be wrong,
I do have some extras Im not using i could trade or sell.

This is going to be so sweet!

Any updates on this one?
I wish Raymond, I STILL have not yet received my income tax return, it's been over 2 months, I'm so mad, I need it to buy a new air compressor for my air brush set. So I am stuck with the paint being the next step.
Hopefully I get up and going soon.
Thanks!
Oh and P.S. i will never use a rattle can ever ever ever ever again.

I'm still waiting for my income tax return, and waiting and waiting... So I picked up a side project for fun and to fill the time! It's a little 1/32 scale 1978 Star Wars R2 D2 van kit, missing many part's but i though it would go great with the Moonscope thing.
I was also Inspired by my good friends comic and children's costume play armor, on this build, Moonscope parts on this van with a tie fighter window! In a world of space exploration. it seems to fit well. Great timing as Snapz releases this weekend.

very cool kits i just need to find out if anyones got a ladder out there? the stunt van i want to say came with one..... not sure about offroad......
Hey Daniel, Yes the Off road kit did come with the rear door ladder, I like it but could live without it, If you could use it, and would like it let me know.
See photos :

Did you change the ladder Gaute, I like your's better, slimmer, that looks like a swimming pool ladder.

Thats a good looking van !!!
And thanks for the Doc. office good vibes.
