Yup, the first X-Rated Show Car. And I believe Barris actually had his hand in it. ?

Painted so many times for the show car circuit, hard to keep track.

Love the flocking, looks great.?

This is an interesting subject. Did I see it in an old Sci Fi flick?

It was in BTTF if I recall correctly ...

Neat project!  
I was curious so I looked it up. Barris built it from a 1966 Dodge A100 van with a V8.  I was thinking it came from a later date larger van!

Sorry i come back on this.

It is very hard to find out, what colors this van has first? he changed often....and i.m.o. it makes it much harder, to build a "authentic" Version because pictures are rare also.

Has anyone the kit "Love machine" ever seen or in the stash? I can't find it on scalemates and it would be fantastic to bring this kit up in the database.

I decided to build this version, where the Testors Kit is based on. and it looks easier to paint as you did it Dale! 

 

The colors are fantastic and the interior is well done! Only the rear wheels are not my taste, but that didn't count. Have you showed it in the gallery?

I missed this one on the first go 'round, I'm glad to have found it.

It's fun to see these old oddball customs built up.

Excellent work on the flocking and paint, everything looks great.

Thanks for taking the time to share it with us.
