Erik Smith Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Here is my Revell Rabbit. Engine is from Clearly Scale. Wheels from Tamiya Skyline. Great little kit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmb0319 Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Utter perfection!!!! Incredible job... looks like you can drive off in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 That is an amazing looking build. Besides the obvious Paint and Trim detailing, this is now a kit I would look forward to building. The Mirrors mounted on the Fenders is not a common style here. I like the Bumpers removed. I had watched your build and I would get that engine also. Man this is just so nice to look at.

6bblbird Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Ordinarily, I probably wouldn't have even looked at a thread about a Volkswagen ( I'm an American car bigot), but I'm glad I did! Terrific craftsmanship is terrific craftsmanship no matter what the subject matter! Beautiful job with incredible detail! WF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geetee66 Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Very nice work, indeed! you nailed it. I owned a mk1 Golf a few decades ago. Great car. Mine had 130k on the clock and still went like a rocket! That engine upgrade looks like money well spent. I'm about to start one of these and I was hoping to use some 14" wheels to get it low. Having seen the underside of yours, I think I'll need to either rethink my wheel choice or tub the wells. maybe the 3 weeks wait for the engine won't be so bad, if I have to do suspension mods...

Cool Hand Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Wow, super clean and crisp build Erik. Great job on all the detail work. In the right setting this would pass for a 1:1 for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocking Rodney Rat Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Interesting subject matter....That is one of the cleanest builds I think I have ever seen. Put that in a diorama and most people would think it's 1:1. -RRR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclescott58 Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 As others have noted, you did a very nice job. I'm also amazed how much smaller the car looks without the bumpers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
