I've been thinking about the Vette van contest for a while and been a bit stuck on what to build and what to use to build it. I bought a parts lot off Ebay just before Christmas and there was a Vette body in there- just what I needed to get going! When done, I'm going with some kinda animal ambulance theme - hence 'Vet's Van'. Here's the body:  And I'm gonna use the back of this to make the van part:  It needed to be shortened 21 scale inches and its not done yet, but it'll definitely work:  Might be hard to visualise right now, but this is kinda the silhouette that I'm going for:  Now I finally came up with a concept I'm actually quite excited about this one! ;D |

Thanks guys! Got chance to spend a couple of hours working on this tonight - it doesnt look like much progress for two hours work though! ;D   I really like the lines, I think they're coming out pretty good so far:   Got a lot of work to go on this yet - when's the deadline again? |

Got a lot of work to go on this yet - when's the deadline again? I believe posting day is April 5th. Don't worry if it's "almost" there. We can post in-progress builds and old builds just as easily as "finished" projects. |
