TooOld Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I restored this from an old gluebomb about a year ago but I never applied the decals . . . now it's finished ! Restored to stock/out of the box condition except I added the posable front and rear license plate . The orange plastic was polished and then cleared . Thanks for looking !

And all this time I have been writing letters asking them for old kits - if I had only known YOU were the golden door! Now, can you build an Open Road Camper van? I want one bad!?
