59 Impala Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 Say Marshall. I haven't heard from you in awhile. I love your van. Working those realy flat sides and not seeing the work is great. You've done a fantastic job. Is the color going to be a dark color or a light one? Not to give away what you plan on for it, just a clue. Have you chased any storms lately? Dan
Foxer Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 That interior is something! It's all looking good ... nice to have all these vans in the works as my epic van is moving along like sludge.
evilone Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 suggestion hang a "do not disturb" sign on the back door handle lol theres no way a "normal" couple of people can make that thing rock lol looks good bro you gonna keep the flat black or do a 70's style color?
Custom Hearse Posted March 20, 2011 Author Posted March 20, 2011 Thanks Justin... I like that... Super Shaggin' Wagon! That means a lot coming from you Virgil! I really appreciate the compliment!!! Sorry Dan... It's an ancient Chinese secret... No storms of late, just SNOW... Lots and lots of snow... Thanks Mike! I've been watching your van build and it is AWESOME! Keep up the good work! Thanks Kevin... As for the paint color, read the above... I will give a hint, it will be a '70s style paint job. Thanks again everybody for the compliments and encouragement. I'll have another update soon.
Custom Hearse Posted June 28, 2014 Author Posted June 28, 2014 I've decided to get back on this build after a 3 year hiatus... I also need Harry P. to move it to the van model section for me please. When I started this, the van and truck section didn't exist. Thanks Harry!
disabled modeler Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 Marshall....Very very cool. I built a few of these van kits as a kid...bringing back good memories.
Custom Hearse Posted June 29, 2014 Author Posted June 29, 2014 Thanks Mark. I'm doing the interior right now, and this thing will be fully loaded (70's style). It'll have a reel to reel tape deck, T.V., bench seats, a drink rack, and a fireplace. Maybe if I can find one, a DISCO BALL!!!, That way I can groove back in time!
Custom Hearse Posted June 30, 2014 Author Posted June 30, 2014 Thanks Bruce! I'll post some pics of the interior work I've done soon.
Custom Hearse Posted June 30, 2014 Author Posted June 30, 2014 Here's some pics of the interior. I added a TV, reel to reel (the 70's version of "high tech"), and a fireplace, complete with logs.
Custom Hearse Posted July 1, 2014 Author Posted July 1, 2014 Thanks Carl! I still have more to add though...
kilrathy10 Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 That is one awesome shaggin' wagon....I love that reel to reel deck in there....That is just fantastic.....Very nice work on the splice.....Looks awesome.....
Custom Hearse Posted July 2, 2014 Author Posted July 2, 2014 Thanks J.T.! Trying to be as 70's as I can get with this build. I have to buy the paints again. The cans I bought were stolen (who steals Testors paint?). I found a source to get them from online, because Hobby Lobby doesn't sell them anymore.
slusher Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 Thanks Carl! I still have more to add though... I want to follow this one, I have a van to build sometime. Don't know how I missed this one...Keep up the good work...
Custom Hearse Posted July 2, 2014 Author Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) I want to follow this one, I have a van to build sometime. Don't know how I missed this one...Keep up the good work... It's really not too hard to build Carl. You glue on a couple parts, paint a few things, use a little putty. But there is one important thing that you have to do... You have to sing "Disco Duck" during assembly... Good luck building yours. I'd like to see the progress of it when you start it! Edited July 2, 2014 by Custom Hearse

Custom Hearse Posted July 3, 2014 Author Posted July 3, 2014 wow disco duck i have that on an 8 track tape and im only 14...lol COOL! I heard that song the first time, and knew right then and there, that there were too many people smoking pot...
redneckrodder Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 COOL! I heard that song the first time, and knew right then and there, that there were too many people smoking pot... lol :-)

I heard that song the first time, and knew right then and there, that there were too many people smoking pot... Remember the song and old Rick Dees well. I have some 70's music but not Disco Duck. There was a bunch of 70's songs they wrote while on pot. Thanks for the good laugh...
Custom Hearse Posted July 5, 2014 Author Posted July 5, 2014 You're welcome Carl... I'll be here all week... Try the veal!!!
