Full build from scratch

[davecosford]

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

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
