First build in some years, wanted something different. I saw some pictures of kei vans with American van front ends so i went for it on my build. I kept it as a amateur job or someones home brew attempt at the conversion that isnt quite halfway through. This project was the first time i actually 3d scanned the body to scale the grill, make the new front bumper, and rear window fillers. the interior is 100% stock with orange accents. The paint is Mr Color high silver with Mr color clear orange, Windows were done with 2 coats of tamiya smoke. The wheels were supposed to be 4 spoke chevy rally wheels but that felt off to me so i went with some one off fan style wheels with orange wall tires to give it a "look". Pretty much every build going forward will end up in front of the scanner before anything else is done.

Wheels are done so are the tires they look good but decided to add more meat to the sidewall so I'm reprinting them -

Interior is done. the 1:1 is spartan inside so I decided to avoid the multiple speaker sound system I had planned -

Finally got a decent temp range in the garage so I decided to paint. Didn't want a cliche Playboy color so I went for Candy Orange. -

Thanks, It's kinda hard to work with and you do need a decently fast gaming laptop to operate it. Eventually I'll do a YouTube video on it -

Finished the floorboard but ran out of resin. Originally I was supposed to cut the interior tub floor to mate to the floorboard but changed plans and cut the print instead and caused a whole load of problems after that. That aside I learned that Wesleys Bleeche white cleans the residue after curing better than alcohol does without as much waste all I did was spray it, let it sit a second, then hit it with a soft brush and rinse it off.

Was actually the first body i successfully scanned and at the time didnt know what to do with it ive since learned the scanner and now pretty much putting every kit i build through the process before any work is done. This one Got a C10 Grille, bunny window fillers, and wanted a more first gen camaro style bumper to match up the grill, other accessories are being printed as the build progresses. the van is 1/20 so i had to scale some lowrider wheels to stock 10" and made some custom tires for it. the Honda letters will be shaved at some point only give away it was a honda will be on the trunk handle. -
