Built by: Jay Lewis in Fridley, Minnesota
The Baja Bandito was built in 2002 from a Baja Beast reissued kit. The body of the bus and mini bike were painted House of Kolor candy tangerine over silver followed by a few coats of clear. After the usual one month dry time they were sanded and buffed.
The flowers were hand-painted using different colors of One Shot. I still have to paint on the tie-dyed, freak drop hippy panels on the sides which I'll get to one day. I added a fuel line and plug wires to the engine and called it a day. Overall a very simple build.
