Details: Les's model fleet includes lots of interesting buses, and here we see one of the RFs converted by LCBS into towing vehicles, posed with some other LCBS buses. Note the cut away rear.
Les writes: This was converted from an EFE RF. The model was dismantled, and completely stripped of paint using NITROMOORS paint stripper on the die cast only. I then cut out the rear lower body before respraying the model with Halfords grey ACRYLIC primer paint, the front and rear being painted with a suitable shade of yellow from the Humbrol paint range. Once the paint was I dry I applied the transfers (from LBRT) and protected them with a coat of Humbrol Clear Cote (GLOSS) over the whole model. Wheel hubs were painted grey using Humbrol light grey, when dry re-assemble the model using white metal plugs from LBRT.
