Shorty VW Pickup

[Mad Slammer]

Hi… This one has some history… About 10 plus years ago, I bought a resin body from Gregg. When I received the package it had an extra body…. A Shortened VW bus without a roof and nothing else, with a note… “ I know you can make this one cool… “ or something close to that. Anyway, O put it aside for a couple of years until last year when the chance to attend the GSL finally came. I grafted a 1953 amt Chevy 3100 pickup roof and fabricated almost everything else… 

hope you guys like it…

Great looking paint work. Like the rack and the matching surfboard.

Well done Roberto, I love how the surfboard is longer than the model. ? That chevy roof works well on this and the paint looks great. 

Cheers,

That is just magnificent! As a VW fan since I was about 10 (now 75) I'm super impressed. I built one about 2 years ago with Centrelines with the standard body.
