Discover a piece of automotive history with the VW T3 Bus Model Kit - Realistic details and fun in 1:25 scale!
Get behind the wheel of history with our VW T3 bus model kit. This detailed 1:25 scale kit brings the reliable van, which was produced from 1979 onwards, to your home. With its 77 parts and dimensions of 185 mm in length, 79 mm in width and 76 mm in height, this kit offers an exciting and fun challenge for modelers aged 10 and over.
In addition to the multi-part body and engine, the kit features a movable sliding door that provides an extra level of realism and interactivity. The decals with various international license plates make it possible to customize the model and give it a personal touch.
Background information:
The VW T3 bus, produced from 1979 onwards, was a reliable van that offered many technical innovations and a modern, functional design. With our model kit, you can recreate a piece of this fascinating automotive history yourself and experience a unique piece of German engineering. Immerse yourself in the world of model making and discover the joy of creative design!
The Volkswagen Type 2 (T3) was the third generation of the Volkswagen Transporter and was marketed under various nameplates worldwide - including the Transporter or Caravelle in Europe, T25 in the UK, Microbus and Kombi in South Africa/Brazil/Australia, Kampeerauto in Netherlands, Combi in France and Vanagon in North and South America.[3][4][5]
It was larger, heavier, and more angular in its styling than its predecessor, the T2, but shared the same rear-engine, cab-over design. It was produced in a rear wheel drive version as well as a 4WD version marketed as "Syncro."[6]
The T3 was manufactured in Hannover, Germany from 1979 until 1991.[7] Production of the Syncro (mostly for official use, like postal service or German army) continued until 1992 at Puch in Graz, Austria, where all 4WDs were built. A limited number of 2WD models were also produced at the Graz factory after German production had come to an end. South African production of the T3 continued, for that market only, until 2002.[8][9][10]
The T3 was the final generation of rear-engined Volkswagens.
Porsche created a version called B32 in a limited edition. The van, based on the luxurious Carat model, was equipped with the 231 PS (170 kW) 3.2 liter Carrera engine and was originally developed to support Porsche's testing activities in Algeria. Ten of these were built, with some sold by Porsche to special customers, even having a Porsche VIN.[15] Porsche themselves also used the Porsche-engined bus to transport staff rapidly.[16] Top speed was around 135 mph (217 km/h), although Porsche only claimed 116 mph (187 km/h) to ensure that the numbers could be replicated with nine people in the car and with the air conditioning on full.
TRIVIA - from a veteran VW Vanagon only Tech. From 1980 - 1983 Vanagons were powered by the 1979 VW Bus engine. 1984 - 1991 Vanagons had their own water cooled flat 4 engine. The "TELL" air cooled Vans have ONE GRILL between the headlights. Water cooled Vans have a SECOND LOWER GRILL shorter and below the top grill. The kit you're building today is a WATER COOLED VANAGON. Which is "better" ? The one you own and use! Thanks Chris for this build ! ! !
Thanks RA!
In fact, this set still remains an air-cooled Vanagon to which a lower grille was added... But despite this and other little things, the model overall looks pretty good.
I have a lot of examples of the Revelle Vanagon/T3 kit and this is the only one I know of that has the actual water cooled lower grill part. I may have to get this though I see the the engine detail is still the aircold.
Love the music at 8:50 This channel is so much fun.
I agree 100 percent with what you said at the end of the video!! Lots of people that don't even model build will buy these up just to collect them and let them sit on a shelf not built. Who cares it bring cash to the hobby. We'll said sir.
Modern Relevant Kits - yes, this please!
Very cool Chris.
Interesting facts:
Initially, the series planned to use a different van, but when filming began, it turned out that there was too little space for video equipment, so this van (I don't remember which one, it was some Japanese car) was replaced with a Vanagon.
Two Vanagons were used for filming, one with an original VW water-cooled engine, and the other van with a Subaru engine, mainly used for driving scenes because the VW engine wasn't very powerful.
By the way, as an "expert" I don't see any movie mistakes regarding the use of 2 Vanagons, I think it's because the same cars were used, they are both 1984 VW Vanagon GL. Because sometimes there are mistakes in movies when cars of different years of manufacture are used.
Could always take the Surfer Boy Pizza parts from this kit and put them on the AMT ‘65 Chevelle Surf Wagon kit. Or take the Surf Wagon kit parts from that ‘65 Chevelle and put them with this van.
Great build! Wouldn’t it be super cool if we had more 1/24 figures to use for these movie/tv tie in models!!
Awesome build Chris! Thanks to you, I know what to expect when I build this for my Daughter!
Great build mate👍
Great review! All three are on my list to get. first reason is because I watch the show and second reason is because my grand-daughter is a huge fan of the show so I plan to build them for her. I'll get a second camaro for myself to build differently. take care
I always admire your work great job 😊
I saw the 1st Season of Stranger Things. That’s a neat VW Vanagon. And, doing it your way is what’s best
Great looking kit!!! I have taken to building food trucks; model kit/ Lego ect. It’s great subject matter. Thanks for the review. 😎👍🏻
You could do a video on scraping that crud out of your spray booth, nice build 👍👍
thanks for the video!
Looks like a lovely kit👍
And now I'm hungry for pizza - thanks for a great build.
I've never watched Stranger Things, but I like these vehicles coming out of it. Been meaning to get one of these Revell Vanagons for quite some time now, and I like the color scheme on this one.
Very cool! I built the camper version of this kit a couple of years ago. It had been in my stash for eons. It turned out pretty good. I may have to grab this one too!
Awesome job, love the videos, keep them coming. 👍🏻🔥🤘🏻
Nice build as usual. I was eating pizza when I was watching the video.
Awesome job on a model van 👍👍👍👍
Ty. Is it a good kit ? 1-10.? Want the blazer first. Vw 2:nd. And last the Pontiac. So far,what is the best?
If making the build easier would mean decals for the doors, maybe revell should consider a smaller second decal sheet. That way it covers those who would like to use decals and those who want to hand paint or airbrush the interior
I think a JAWS series would do well. Chief Brody's K5 Blazer, the ORCA and possibly the Mayor's Coupe De Ville.
I would love to see more of the VW kits coming out bug, the VW truck and of course the hippie bus
Would like to try plastruct bondene, but it is not available in Australia. may have to import it from the US which is probably going to cost about $30 AUD here.
Do you really reply? Will you go to the NNL East show in New Jersey? Talk to your sponsers. Great video Chris, keep em coming, I'll keep watching.
I don't have any plans to fly to NJ for the model show, thanks!
To Chris or anyone else: do you recommend storing markers up, down, or on their sides?
Racks in art stores for professional markers store them always on the side. I would assume professionals know what they're doing :)
I put mine tip down, been working fine for me.
I store mine tip down also. I, too have the best results with that. @randomnickify
These days we can print out our own water dipped decals. Printable decal paper is not expensive online.
Those things exist since ages, and there is a reason why they never caught on. Printers can't print White color, so you either print on paper with white carrier film and then have to manually cut out your decal extremely precisely. Or you print on paper with transparent carrier but then you will not have a white color on the decal and all other colors will be mudded by the color bellow - realistically transparent carrier works only on white elements. Honestly its easier to buy "made to order" decals from third party companies than fight with self printable stuff.
Holy flash Batman!! Why is there so much....
I’ve never seen the show but I’m buying all 3. I just check model round up and it says March.
PIZZA PIZZAAAA ^-^
So this is a re pop of the old Magnum P.I. van which was T.C.s if so I've got to get it to add tho my Magnum Ferrari which i have and built 😊😊😊😊
BTW - ALL Vanagons (Air and Water Cooled) are rear engine / rear wheel drive.
Clarification:
There were also versions with "Syncro" all-wheel drive. And they were only with water-cooled engines.
Won't be available until March 2025 thank you for the video
Chris- you need to correct the spelling of 'Stranger' in the title. The R is missing. You'll be missing out on a lot of fans who might stumble across your channel whilst looking for anything related to the show.
Thanks for that catch, fixed.
My question is if Stranger Things is filmed in fictitious Hawkins Indiana, (Georia actual location), why do both the Camaro and VW van have California license plates?
Because in Season 2, Billy Hargrove moves to Hawkins from California, and presumably won't change the registration on his Camaro for a while.
Some of the characters move to California for the start of Season 4, and one of them is friends with a kid who works for Surfer Boy Pizza.
