My VannonBall Entry VW Westfalia Is Finished

[oldcarfan]

I'm not good at writing how-to's, but since I've got my Vannonball entry done so I'm going to show my wrap up pictures.

The Revell VW Vanagon kit is nice, but it is old and it fought me the whole way. The molds were showing their age I guess. The clear parts were molded with a lot of flash on every piece and all the parts could use some better locating tabs. I'm going to hit the high points as I didn't take many pictures. I figured the guys would go high tech, so she has two laptops, a bank of scanners and other interception gear and radar detectors. I used three Porsche 911 seats out of the Revell 911s for the guys to be comfortable. I modeled the van's markings on the AUDI and VW transporters used by the race teams, combined with a little inspiration from the Polish Racing Drivers of America.

Here's the pictures from my 'Photo Shoot'. I need to do some touch-ups and clean-ups. But here you go.

TO the moderators, this needs to be in the finished column rather than WIP. Can you move it or tell me how to move it? Thanks.
