Glen, nice work on painting up those kitchen details!

Thank you,

I finished off the diner interior:

   

Everything fit very well in the interior, I had to use some tweezers to install the stools and dining counter. It I was to build this again, I'd cut down on the number of stools, it looks a bit crowded to me.

   

I plan to have some figures in here. I did find one that would make a good cook/attendant, but it's not easy finding a figures that are sitting on stools.

   

After that I glued the diner onto the truck frame.

   

you can see the crack that I put in the door. It's a bit dissappointing but it could be chauked up to some road damage.

More great work, Glen. Really cool interior details.

There may be a bit of elbow banging on those stools 

Still looks great!!!

Thanks. 
I finished the model up to the figures and some extra detailing that I'm thinking of adding.
   

I added the steps and the roof signs. The steps were another 3-d printed part, the signs are several pieces.

   

There's a second set of portable steps for the outside take-out window. You can see the menu in the window beside.

   

After the last details were added I did some weathering using some polly-s grimey black around the chimney vents and some Vallejo dirt along the lower sides of the truck and steps.

Glen,

Nice looking build, are your interior details going to be obscured with the roof on?

Thanks, The interior is pretty much hidden by the roof but the roof is removeable so detailinf the interior isn't a total loss.

If it's going to be stationary, maybe a couple LEDs to light 'r up! I do love that kit and your work on it.

Glen, finally I'll have a cheeseburger & fries please!
Nice work on bringing this nifty kit together.
I think TMo's idea of adding a couple of LED's to the interior would be a good one.
I am surprised that "Interaction Hobbies" doesn't sell a lighting kit as a option for this kit.
