  1. Very nice build. An exceptional attention to detail and excellent job on the two tone paint job.
  2. Thank you everyone for the nice comments. Forgot to mention the carbs are from Fireball.
  3. Built basically box stock from the AMT kit. Added distributor wires, fuel lines, and throttle linkage. I painted it using Tamiya X2 white and MCW Turbine Bronze with Tamiya TS13 clear. Thanks for looking
  4. Thanks. They have their flaws but build up nice. Seems there is always a next one.
  5. Been a while since I have posted here but finally finished this. I started with the Lindberg kit. Used wheels and tires from the Moebius kit. Added Fireball carbs, plug wires, and fuel lines. Paint is Tamiya acrylic with ts 13 clear. Decals are from the internet. Thanks for looking.
  6. Very nice build John. Very clean and all the details add up to an excellent model.
  7. Very nice! Captures the daily driver Sunday racer perfectly.
  8. Very nice build John Excellent work on the modifications, Very clean!
  9. Very nice build of a finicky kit!
  10. Your welcome Claude. I'm not sure what it is about VW's. I think they are a somewhat unique and iconic vehicle to begin with. But that in itself does not make it cool so to say. A stock VW might be interesting because you don't see them everyday but not necessarily cool. As with any modified car it is the modifications that can either make it "cool" or "Eh". Cool or eh being highly subjective depending who is looking at it. In the case of your model it is the modifications done, something you don't see everyday, and how well they were executed that for me personally made me say very cool.
  11. Thank you Michael. The white on the sides is painted and the stripes on top are decals. For the interior I used Tamiya X31 titanium gold mixed with XF64 brown until it looked right to me.
  12. Thank you. Sounds like you have a nice build going as well. Looking forward to seeing it.
  13. Thank you Carl. Thank you Josh.
  14. Thank you Seth. Yes the drive train detail is lacking. Thanks John. Thanks Mike. It is a cool car.
