Heh, I grew up with orange shag carpet and dark wood panelling in my house.  Also, avocado appliances, a wall phone, and a pool table. 

Avocado and Harvest Gold: THE appliance colors of the '70s.

(We had the Gold...Mom couldn't stand what she called 'baby vomit green'.... )

Lol and the flower -patterned sofas and couches too!

Making a template for the big W!  

Cut the Styrene strips and glued them on to simulate the ribbed texture of the Winnie .Quite time consuming and I hope I have enough plastic to cover the other side (multi color due to the advertising plastic I obtained at my old job). broken skull wallpaper

I found some more  plastic in my stash and sheethed the other side.  

Made and painted the fuel tanks.The original plan was to use the kit supplied tanks of the Kenworth but they were too large   

Roughed in the roof sections   wells fargo atm nyc

Hinged up the roof using the hinges from an old Jewelry box I found laying  around .  

Preparing to primer and paint.   

Awsome work Eugene! 

Stay Safe.

Thanks!  

looks really good, uh, is the tape on the roof for raceing strips to follow? (boy I crack me up )

Nah just to keep overspray out!

Painted the accent stripes and W...

Fuel tanks are cool!  

I found a nice A /C unit in my parts stash and made a couple of roof vents . 

Put the windshield in as well as other front end detail..

Tail lights out in   find me a shell gas station near me

Put the side and rear glass in.Due to supply chain issues ,the local hobby shops didn't have clear plastic so I had to use old CD cases. .now I tried to use my usual scribe and break method but the plastic shattered!So I had to use my Dremel with a cut off wheel to cut it out Worked well but I had to use sand paper and my Stanley block plane to make them fit  .Brushed on some Future for good measure. 

I added fuel tank straps and the fuel filler tubes,have to find caps for them. ..  

Pieced together a shorty exhaust system. 

Made the forward interior trim panels with armrests,which are a laminate of sheet plastic and Walnut veneer  .

Dash and seats installed..

Fitting up the upper grille inserts and front bumper..

Added the rear ladder.. debating whether it would be ok to extend it down or just leave it.. 

It's coming along very nicely.

Thanks!I have to tell you guys it is getting heavy ,over two pounds already!

Put it on the satellite dish.  apple logo wallpaper mac

Made the couch for tye passenger side out if two 57 Chevy front seats joined together.
