Thats anatomically incorrect so when you get your paints out.....the over-riders and grille make it a MkIV but they've painted round headlights on it!

Got to be the cheapest T2 ever though :thumb2

I bought one of these (Fire Chiefs' car), stripped it, sprayed it Mexican Chilli Red (colour of my T2) after removing roof lights & front aerial and filling holes with filler. For a wing aerial I used a bristle from a hair brush, painted all the lights/indicators/bumpers/wing trims etc by hand usind a tiny brush, Humbrol & a magnifying glass - what sort of a saddo am I? Gotta get out more!

Cool. I was wondering what to fill the roof with. I'm also thinking of putting roof rails in. I've got some from a mitsubishi shogun that's the same scale that I turned into a pickup truck. So the roof rails are still attached to the removed roof:lol. Any pics of your model t2?

I think you need some mirrors too, are yours chrome, body colour or black?

suggest spare is too central, ? wheels too big well compared to ride
heignt, perhaps a lift is in order.
