MoonMonkey Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Well, I'm thinking about getting a bus to go on a bridge, if only to adhere to the apparent cliche Has anyone dismantled the Oxford Diecast bus (like this one: https://www.oxforddiecast.co.uk/collections/1-76/products/bedford-owb-royal-navy-76owb001) to weather and spray varnish (so popping the glazing out too), and also fitting passengers and a driver? If so, did it go well or was it a shambles? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Bird Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Quite easy this one. Undo one screw at the front and two at the rear and the bus comes apart. One slight problem, if you decide to change the colour, you will need a steady hand to paint the bar across the driver's windscreen. Apart from that, it's very straightforward. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's most helpful, many thanks @Les Bird I shall look to buy one next time I do an order. I shall try to remember to post any observations here!
