Erock Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 (edited) This has been a few year project. Couldn't get into it for years but my wife convinced me to finish it. All body parts were separate and a pain to line up. Finally finished it yesterday Edited April 5, 2023 by Erock 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rattlecan Dan Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 Very Nice Bus! With gas prices as they are, would make a nice cross country trip vehicle now. Like the color too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was very tedious and frustrating. The doors and trunk area are supposed to open but that wasn't happening! Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
