RED DOUBLE DECKER BUS

RED DOUBLE DECKER BUS

This posting features images from the new RED DOUBLE DECKER BUS. The RED DOUBLE DECKER BUS is an original creation from the Brick Trick Dude building studio here in San Francisco and is one-of-a-kind. Currently this model is for sale on Ebay.

EXTERIOR: The RED DOUBLE DECKER BUS project features a rolling vehicle built on an 8x28 peg custom chassis with four large black rubber tires and light bluish gray rims. The front of the bus has an entry door to the driver cab and a large window on both the lower and upper levels. There are headlights and taillights, as well as rear view mirrors. The back of the bus has the classic open-corner entrance. The sides and back of the bus also have numerous windows. The roof of the bus is red smooth tiles, (with silver vents), and the main body is red. White and light gray stripes decorate the sides and back of the bus body. Modular construction techniques allow the roof and second level to be removed for interior viewing, and then units can be easily re-stacked.

INTERIOR: The RED DOUBLE DECKER BUS can seat a driver and 11 passengers on the first level. A spiral staircase just inside the back entrance takes riders to the second level with 15 more seats, (a minifigure driver and six passengers are included). In European fashion, the driver is situated on the right side, (you can change the driver to the left side if desired).

DETAILS: Project contains approximately 400 bricks and parts and includes seven minifigures as shown, (4 females, 3 males). Finished model weighs approximately 1.8 pounds. Model measures 2-1/2 inches wide by 9 inches long and is 6-1/4 inches high at the top of the silver roof vents. Minifigures stand about 1-5/8 inches high, depending on their hat or hairstyle.
