1950 Ford COE School Bus

1950 Ford COE School Bus

I named this build SCHOOL'S OUT. It's a Jimmy Flintstone resin body. The body also came with an interior tub. The paint job is a Krylon Stained Glass Canary Yellow over a Krylon Shimmer Metallic Pear color and cleared with a Rust-Oleum Lacquer Gloss Clear. The grill and nose trim came from a 1950 Ford Pickup kit. The interior floor is real wood popsicle craft sticks I got at Hobby Lobby and stained with a real wood stain marker I found at my local hardware store. The seat, steering wheel, and fire extinguisher are salvaged from some spare parts I had laying around. The wheels are Pegasus 23" Magnum wheels. The license plates are scaled down from real license plates I found on Google. The taillights are actually painted with nail polish that glows under a blacklight. This is my most expensive resin model I've ever done. The body alone cost me $50. And that doesn't include the money it cost me for shipping which was around $10-$12 extra.
