Out of my comfort zone, built for a friend who owns ar real one (Panel van though)
This is actually another "Corona stalled" build, stuck because it was repainted (and filled/sanded) twice both due to my clumsiness and the Xtracolor enamel paints being wayyy different between 2 (bought at the same time) tins.
Anyway, the sales ticked still in the box said december 2010, so it's just in time for it's 10th anniversary.
Decals are by a Dutch company "Flevo Decals" and worked flawless, the Hasegawa kit decals desintegrated in contact with water, which I never had before. The 4-slot wheels were sourced (by accident!) from Ebay, probably of some Die-cast model or other, as the kit comes with multi-slotted VW Beetle wheels.
All in all not bad for a first car model in ages (and one with many ridges, lines and window seals!), and I could use some WWI aircraft model techniques as well on the exhaust system and woodwork in the load area

PS I'll be checking out all the other great builds here later, there's almost too much activity to keep up!
