A Lego nerd friend of mine just sent me some photos of that. It's cool to see anything Bay rather than Split Bus like most things seem to be. I'd mention the late Westy interior and top, but with low light signals and air vents, but I don't want the Lego nerd to think I'm a VW nerd.

I would be tempted to change the color. Blue is good, but what about the green, reddish orange and my favorite, Mexican Beige.

Maybe add something to simulate screens on the top canvas.

I really like the looks of it overall.

I posted mine over in the Bay Window forum, but I got mine yesterday and built it already. It's pretty cool, lots of neat details.
