Yep, I don't really have a clear idea of how to approach it, as a begging I have scratched and even warmed up the plastic (I am afraid a bit to much), but let's wait for the results. Lot's of inspiration on youtube!

So, I startet with the rusty underpainting and worked out the engine, interior and under parts. I will apply some "school glue" on the body, clear coat and the body paint which I will scrap later on. To be continued...

Just caught this. If you are worried about the door, simply remove it? You can always add this to a diorama of a partially stripped vehicle, or something in the state of repair? That way you can also display your work on the interior? Just a thought mate? 😉

Good idea Bozzer, I will see how it will turn up at the end. In real life looks a bit better.

No worries mate. There's always a way to save a build. But when it's staring at you, you can't see the wood, for the trees 😉
