playmo limo
« on: March 21, 2006, 18:44:15 »
Hello friends,  This is my playmobil limousine.  It is made from the vintage auto 5620.
The passenger compartment is made of thin plywood, and the seats from hardwood.
The frame was lengthened to accommodate the longer body.  The hood and frame/fenders are original Playmobile parts.

That's a beautiful custom, James. :wow:  Now you need a chauffeur for it. :)

What more can be said?
you make beautiful customs.
I cant tell where the playmo ends and the custom begins.
Its clear you take a lot of time in planning and designing (the sign of a good engineer).
Your work is outstanding.

we are pleased that you share your creations with us.

Another fabulously stylish conversion! :wow:

I always wished there was a wider variety of vehicles available to complement the Victorian theme, and now we can all see how these would have looked, thanks to your skill and creativity. :yup:

Of course, I'm really hoping that you still have several more Victorian conversions up your sleeve, but how many 'spare' Old Timers or vintage delivery trucks can one person possibly own? ;)

Thanks for sharing this with us, James.  :)9

BEAUTIFUL, James ...  :wow: ... :wow: ... :wow:

I'm sure that most of us are probably wondering where you keep getting  ... what seems to be an endless supply of vehicles ... ;)

All the best,
Richard

Thank you all for the encouraging remarks.  I have only three original trucks remaining to customize.  I don't have any more cars though, I didn't like the way the klickys had to half stand, half sit in the  seat, so  I only purchased them for specific customs.

Thanks again, and all the best,

Jim
