Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Van (Playhouse)

[DepPotts]

I love this project! I had a cardboard box as a kid that I decorated as the Van!

As far as the interior goes, maybe check the show for a layout idea and adapt it to include a small flatscreen tv on one wall and maybe one of those child's computers at a workstation for him.

Couple that with a small "armory" full of child friendly turtle weapons and costumes.

Thanks man. That's awesome your son likes the old stuff to. He-man was always my favorite as a kid. I still have a lot of my old toys from that series.

My mother tossed all mine... Even had Castle Greyskull! :lol

Looking forward to the finished van. :thumbsup

That sucks she tossed your stuff some of those thing are worth a pretty penny. Speaking of greyskull that would make an awesome playhouse.

Small update I've been working on the body of the van smoothing out every thing for the past two days. I'm getting really close to being able to paint the thing. I've also done some more detail work. Me and juice milled a new turtles logo Saturday and mounted a lot of the details on the front end like the lights and bumper. I'm going to done some more work on it today I'll post a pic of the progress when I get started.

I know this may seem a little forward, ironkamakaze, but I have to ask...will you be my father?

 

[Tim Allen]

Super cool!

 

[Egon Spengler]

So very cool! I wonder if it would be possible to do the same thing but on a larger scale with the base of a car? Make one you can drive. I saw video of a Volkswagen van someone converted but the thing had HORRIBLE gas mileage. I'm thinking something like this would be pretty light.
