Just finished a van to use as a covert ops vehicle for my Flying Squad officers in "Geezers". It can also double as a "Blaggers" get-away vehicle.
It's an old Ford Transit van (Vanguard model) I picked up for £4.00.







Ave it!

Awesome job.

Amazing work!

It always makes me smile to think of the hours of work & the amount of talent that go into making a shiny pristine vehicle into an old banger.

Especially when the real-life scrotes achieve the same effect effortlessly  :lol:

Sorted, my son! Get in there!

Thank you all for the comments!
I had a great deal of fun painting this and it gave me an excuse to use some home-made dry transfers.

Some 28mm shop fronts are next on my hit list.........
