VW Beetle

[avidinha]

I built this from the Revell VW 60's Beetle kit. I've had this kit for a while, but wasn't sure how I wanted to build it until I got the wide 5 wheels that came as a bonus in a VW bus kit I bought. I sanded off the little fender flares, lowered it and used some aluminum tubing for the exhaust tips. This was not an easy kit to build, but I'm happy with how it turned out.

Nice build Andrew. I'm starting on my Tamiya Beetle and will be glad if it turns out as nice as yours.

Cheers, David. ??

Super clean. Nice color and finish

Like the bright color and the lowered stance. Hard to find wide-five wheels and these add a lot of realism.  

[Classicgas]

Nice.

Nicely done. Good choice with the wheels and stance. ?

Thanks. I used this kit. I think they're the same tooling though.

Awesome looking Beetle, much better than the box art! Love the stance and the wheels!

Oh yeah Andrew, I do like that.  Very nice build. Like the wheels and no bumpers.  I actually had a real one in a similar color.
