Antique Archaeology VW Transporter

Well its all done and ready for Mackay competition. Small base to display it, a few signs on the fence and in the tray. I also scratchbuild an old neon Liquor sign for in the tray as well. Hasn't turned out too bad considering I don't do alot of weathered models. I am quite happy with the way this has finished up. Thanks for looking.













Just a reminder of what the original looks like.

What did you make the roof rack with?

Have you ever thought about sending pictures of what you have done to the American picker guys ? im` sure they would be just as impressed as all of us if not more so.

The roof rack and the hurst bar work on the front bumper was all scratchbuilt from evergreen, aluminium from a soft drink can and scale timber.

Fantastic work dufasdave. The signs in the tray are a great finishing touch to such a brilliant model. Well done.

Thanks Dave. I've used wire in the past but it's a PiTA to get the joints to look realistic.
