The Microbus is a Franklin Mint ready made thing!
Really nice if that is your thing! It was when I bought it but i'm not into Volkswagens now!
Great detail though, certainly enough works on it! I love the fabric roll back rag top!
I can take some nice outdoor pics if you want?

It's all very authentic and the colours spot on, both inside and out!
Is that the best colour combination too? I think so!
I have some old VW mags with allsorts of ideas in them!
Are you going to do it factory stock?

Yeah, it looks great. The kit I have has spartan interior detail. It's really for a friend of mine, and he prefers the blue-green color they came in. Factory stock it will be. The kit is of the ragtop type, but the "ragtop" is just molded into the roof. Oh, well...
