OpiateMFP's Aoshima Interceptor
Here is OpiateMFP's Aoshima Interceptor, and here is how he made it:
I started by opening the doors and replacing the inside door panels
with skeleton skins made out of plastic styrene, hinged the doors with
paper clips and metal tubing. (which is really a pain in the butt for the
first time!!) I put a leather loop on the drivers door from some scrap
leather my wife got at a garage sale. I installed a
rollbar with additional roll cage bars for support along both door jams and
along side the inside of the driver's seat. Found the rear rims from the
parts box and tried to match them as close as I could to the ones in
the movie. I had to custom make the inside part of the rim to make them
fit better with the kit's tires. I picked up some chain at Wal-Mart in
the craft section (Necklace or Braclet chain), wrapped it around the roll
cage and layed it on the passenger seat floor boards. For the jumper seat I
made a cushion from craft felt. Misc. stuff in the back seat area, that
I custom made so that things could fit in between seat and panel. Which
was also made from plastic styrene ans painted flat black. The net was
from kids water toy sponges (the packaging) and spray painted green
along with the jerry cans. I opened up the passenger and drivers windows
obviously to view interier better. Put a new weathering job over it and
called it a day... Other details include door jams and latches, the bucket
hanging from the roll bar and some other things...
