Mid 70s Chevrolet Van

Finished. Mr Hobby red is the colour, was going to be white until a paint disaster. Much sanding & polishing made it presentable.
It's the Revell-o-gram kit. I opened the bonnet, added screen washer, battery etc from the parts bin.

The interior is Mission Brown rattle can & Dulcote. Good old 70's brown.

Scratch build the heater box & master cylinder, wired the dizzy, ribbed the cargo area floor. There's a WIP thread of you're really desperate to know
more.

Good to see it finished Chris but just one photo??

Forum is really, really slow for me this morning Al. But here's another one to keep you happy!

With the obligitory cat hair. ( our cats sleep in the modelling room- or I model in the cat's room- I'm never sure)

I like it fine. Thanx, maybe it'll bring a resurgence of van models on these forums. And thanx to the cats for letting u share their space!

What ?!?! No mile high shag carpet, wild paint, wheels, and a water bed and wet bar?


  

I followed the OTB on this one and must say it turned out super nice. WTG Chris.

And no mirror ball either, Sam . I've built the Revell-o-gram "Disco Van" for want of a better word. It should satisfy- bright orange, brown interior, murals,etc.

If you don't like this one, you're going to hate the next van. LOL. White, dogdish hubcaps. A tradsmans special.


Cheers,

Chris

It looks great Chris, just like a workaday van should.

Isn't that the truth of it!!!

We have a cushion in our house, which has these words embroidered on it "The cats and their staff reside here".

Enough said!!! LOL

Nice clean van Chris
- I have a LWB version somewhere that needs to be finished, I might try dig it out.
Great job !
