Mopar - D Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 (edited) This is the Revell VW T1 bus. It’s going to have a white top section and orange on the bottom and a 2 tone cream Interior. So far I’ve started on the engine and chassis. Edited October 31, 2020 by Mopar - D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Tom. I was not seeing very many of them out there. I’ve been able too spray the orange section and planning to use the white plastic with clear coat for the top section.

AmericanMuscleFan Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 After the epic build of the massive Heavy Haul Project, it's funny to see you at something so different, a good proof that you are a true model car enthusiast Dan! I love the color by the way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopar - D Posted November 4, 2020 Author Share Posted November 4, 2020 (edited) Thanks for your comments Francis. This is a build for my girlfriend’s daughter and they have been the ones picking out the colors for it. I’ve been doing a lot of taping and spraying. I’m getting closer to where I can continue to build it out. She wants the Flower power decals on it to. Here’s my painting progress.

Mopar - D Posted December 1, 2020 Author Share Posted December 1, 2020 Thanks Dominik and Ismo, over our Thanksgiving holiday I delivered the VW bus to my girlfriend’s daughter with out having to fix or re-glue any parts back on. I had it packed in a display box in my carry on bag on the plane. ?. She loved it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
