She has the same likes as I do and she likes doing things like this.She is always buying me a kit or two and keeps on my butt to build them quickly.Digger

cool! first of all great subject for the kit.. my cousin had a white VW bus with the popup camper back in the 70's... I loved that thing!!!

Second, if this is her first build I have the feeling her second and onward are goind to AWESOME! Really good job she did on it!!! Tell her congrats for me. I am trying to get wife's nerve up to tackle the PT-109 she bought as her first model awhile back, then chickened out once she started looking at it...

Seriously, it's awesome! So how do I get my wife to try it...?

I think it is 24 scale and my wife like to build anything she can get her hands on.Ya'll don't know how great you make her day.When I call her and tell her what ya'll say,she is just beaming with life.As for me thanks for the complements and she is starting a Ford Shelby Cobra for her next build.Digger

Beautiful job and she didn't chicken out and leave everything closed up! I really like the cupboards fittings visible inside. Nice you can share your hobby as a couple. Good job all round.

Hey, that's a great model, Digger! Tell your wife I love the detail she put into the cabinets and drawers.

I'm looking forward to seeing the Cobra so keep us updated on it. (I'm a Ford man...I do internet sales for a Ford dealership).
