Re: VW Type 1 Delivery Van

Today I made some more progress.

First I did some work on the body. I added the windows, painted the windowtrims and also painted the grey trim around the safari window.

After that I added and painted the lights. The doorhandles are also placed and I gave the handles and lights some rust.

With the rust from Tamiya's wheateringset I added a bit all over the body. I also didn't forget the bumpers.











From the Gunze Sangyo HIGH DETAIL '66 VW Beetle I used some wheels and bumpers. This kit was incomplete so I used it for parts. Most of the parts like the wheels are from white metal. There is also a very nice PE set in it and I can use it for this build.

The wheels are first painted with a creme color. After that I added some damage and rust on them. The bumpers are also rusty.

These parts will be added on the roofrack like this:











And here's the PE frame.



Kris.
