H095 Big Bedford Van Heinz

923

Purchased as a bag of parts, missing the van floor and the rear doors. First stage was making a new floor. The material was from metal framing, studding, as used in the building industry. Very inexpensive and quite useable. Careful measuring, cutting, bending, and filing produced an acceptable floor. The doors were next, bit cheap and ill fitting, I may replace these. Stripping and spraying and detailing followed the normal pattern and I created decals for the sides. And finally, a rough imitation box.
