I just got my New Hebmuller today and can say that it looks great! The pictures don't do justice to it! Thanks, Andy.

Dave, thanks for the pics of the Heb Hiboy. Very cool! I am thinking hard of doing it!

Thanks for the kind words, Fernando. I am glad you liked the New Heb. I will try to get the New Split molded soon. It is almost ready. It will cost less since only the body is needed.

I just finished the molds for this one! I have them on Ebay or you can contact me by PM. It fits on the Tamiya New Beetle and has had the front and rear ends smoothed out for a more custom look.





Thanks for looking!

HA TOO KOOL!!! I did a Sketch on a Legal Length Notepad(The Long one) back in High School that was along the same lines yours... That was around '96 or '97, after I had seen pics and mag sketches of the New Beetle Concepts..... I called it Heb-Revisited, since the Hebmullers( American Bastard Translation, it loosely means the Herbert Miller Coach Works) were my Favorite Variations of the Beetles......

Andy,
I have a perfect ScaleKraft original early VW Heb kit including the interior, split dash, bumpers, fender skirts, banjo steering wheel, interior panels, convert boot & uptop that have been soaked clean, but has not been painted that I will be listing on ebay shortly. I am clearing out the rest of my collection of rare VW stuff. I am keeping a few projects like the ScaleKraft Stoll (for now). I also built the Hasegawa Beetle chassis, lowering it and narrowing the front end, plus I detailed a set of porsche crableg fuchs to approximate that 2 toned red & cream, slammed "Nostalgic Look" early Heb custom that someone showed on your thread.
If you are interested in this ScaleKraft Heb before I list it on ebay let me know.
I will post some pics later.

I would be interested in that Volks Rod project body if you do it! I say the Tamiya  kit would be the better kit to make it for.

Is the New Beetle Heb conversion still available?
