Now the summer has finished decided to tackle a full rebuild. My tech skills aren't the best but I think I've got this...

Going to Keep it standard I think. No lowering or fancy rims. Body shell looks in great condition with no rust. the interior is mint with no rips or tears

Wish me luck

Looks good so far - keep
us updated with the progress and pics 😂🌈👍
 
Things I've learned in the long build....

1. The kit is very very good.
2. If you paint it with 'car' paint the gaps are all screwed
3. I need glasses
4. There's not a career in either painting or model making for me

Got to do some tidying up and apply the stickers and chrome bits but you can see it's a pretty good match to the actual bus

Defo recommend
