VW Bus T1

[Mopar - D]

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.

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.

Perfect color combo! Can't wait to see more progress.

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!

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.

well done ! the flower-power with orange looks very nice.

What a beauty! Looks very sharp and clean build. Orange and white works everytime on everything and those decorations are very pretty.

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!
