VW bus is a fantastic item from back in the day

? I've always heard the kit was a pain in the you know what to build. Still it is cool. And I'd be tempted to build it if it was mine.

I built the Bed Bug (van) version of this kit; I recall the multi-piece body was complex but it fit together very well. I'd take a shot at building that bus!

That ITC Mercedes, however... icon_oak.thumb.gif.a29600147671f0862297c

Those are some awesome finds, older than me! I wouldn't build that bus, it's an antique and has been re-issued enough, and the new RoG tooling or Hasegawa kits are superior. That Entex Wanekel, though...:o

If you are going to build them, go for it! You might be able to trade them if you decide not to build them and there is always eBay!

I'd keep that bus as is. I am 99% of the time a builder but the condition of that original version would keep me from messing with it. The kit has been reissued as stated above, and probably had pretty good collector value since it's a VW. Very cool group!
