Christian WA little more is done. Ready to complete the body. A couple of parts and it's done. Crossing fingers for good fittings.

Christian WThe last steps are started. I take my time to get it together properly. The "tape fitting" was pretty good so I'm looking forward positively to get it good together.

Christian WThe latest and last pictures. Yesterday I accomplished this kit. Cool. My first Bulli. It's not perfect but I'm satisfied.
Kind a crappy: did a lot of work on the doors and was very careful that nothing (the pins) brakes. I clicked them in place, closed them and - I don't get them opened again. They slid underneath the water rail of the roof and snap in place. Damned. Ok. The doors will be shut. If I had known this on the beginning, I won't have paid that much attention.

Christian WThank you Tom 🙂 Yes, those doors.... I will never be a friend of this kit and aaaaaall those, which base on it. It's my second T1 by Revell and none was a smooth built.
Maybe, only maybe, I'll give the bus (VW T1 Bus (Revell 07675, 1:24)) another chance.

István SzücsI don't know, how could I missed this build...
Az usual, you did it again! Great color combo, looking so elegant (if a Bully could be....)! Just one thing: on the 9th picture I see some seam lines, and next time you should drill the exhaust, and paint it flat black inside.

Christian WThank you, mates! Appreciate your comments.
@Julian ... The kit is done. You can see the gallery within the project 😉
@Istvan ... The seam line at the edge to the engine good (how can I describe that!)? I see a half of a line in that area of the left hinge. Okilidokili. More attention at the next build.
I thought, a tip of black on the exhaust will be enough. I'll check that to improve it somehow.

Album info
Only a Transporter. No "Dr. Oetker" at oll. But maybe it was one?
