This is a Welly VW van that i repainted to be the van from the movie "Little Miss Sunshine".

I started out with the red van that was one special for $14. Pulled it all apart. repainted it tamiya yellow and white.  other mods are a sheep skin front seats and a metal exhaust pipe. I must say i like how Welly engineered the side door to open.

Very nice build. Wanted to get a 1:1 of those a long time ago but could only afford a used '72 Beetle.

One of my favorite movies.  Alan Arkin is brilliant.   Nice job replicating the bus.

Very cool. I like collecting  tv and movie cars. Thought about trying to build one, sometime. This and there was another movie wth one. Had Christopher walken in the movie and it revolved around KFC.
