VW bus TypeIII (known as Bulli)
Hi folks,
It's been a while since I've posted one of my projects but this one took me 5 months to build it the way I had it in my mind. I've build 3 TypeII busses so it was time for something different  It's an old Revell box wich costed me about 15Euro's. Boxart:   It started as a simple build with some small changes but it turned out the other way. These are the changes: - lowered - 18" OZ rims - brakediscs from Subaru Imprezza - all seats from Toyota Estima - mirrors from Toyota Estima - xrta fire extinguisher - sporty steeringwheel with Wölfsburglogo - ICE-install - added battery & reservoir in engineroom - printed "T-styler" decal Let the pic's do the talking:             Take a break...... Engine room:   Interior:       To many pic's I guess.....  If you still want more, here's the progress thread: http://forum.modelbrouwers.nl/phpBB2...er=asc&start=0 Thanx for watching!

Now that is C
 L !I've had that kit ever since it first came out-molded in rootbeer brown metallic for the Magnum PI TV show. Yours is the first version I've ever seen built that looked this cool. Usually people build the camper. Nice work!

Re: VW bus TypeIII (known as Bulli)
Hi,
looks cool with white and black, rather low  .What disturbs me a little is the flat inner door panels (armrest, door-opener, ...), but maybe you wanted clean panels  . Further I would softly darken the panel-lines, but not black, this might be a too hard contrast and hey, shouldn´t there be a nice tube at the exhaust  ?
