Wow this must be the 2nd most custom'd van next to the Mystery Machine. People got way to much free time and disposable income.

Just read how they made the parts. Some of it's card board and form. Don't know how that'd fare in the rain.

I've seen so many of these but it really never gets old. Super rad.
If I can afford it somewhere down the line, best believe I'll do the same.

Get in line CJ she is my girl. And truthfully I might do that someday. But truthfully I dont think I could keep it I would probably donate it to some TMNT fan. But If I do rebuild it I am going to go with a full size van or maybe replicate the battle shell.:tgrin:

Ooops i thought it was going to be a toy, then I saw it was a life size car, heheh i got excited for a min! Still cool though,,, I would loved to see how a Combi van or something similar shaped would look done up like a turtle van.

is it true that parts are made of cardboard though?????? that'd be unusual on a car??

Looks like a job well done anyway and would have taken some time and money... a lot of both... where would a 23 yr old student get either of those!!!!!!

Nah u want something that doesn't have a nose. You need a flat face. Truthfully u would need to move the engine block in between the the driver and passenger. and cut off the nose. I think that the battle shell would be easier.

Yeah I agree, I'd love to see one done as close as possible to the original with no expenses spared due to personal nostalgia influencing changes on the original design.. I don’t like how it looks like a normal van...we need a squarer box type, more angular, but don’t get me wrong this person has lots of talent and is really ingenuitive or however you spell it xxx
