stitchdup Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 Since there's been threads for other types I thought I would start one for volkswagen group cars. Post anything from vw, audi, seat, skoda, porsche, lamborghini, man, ducati etc. If its part of the vw family feel free to post it. I'll start with my vw hebmuller. Its built from the bestmodelcarparts resin kit with a tamiya donor and some highlight model studio pe and a coupke of scratch built battered cases Next is a diolex transkit mk3 golf wagon on scale production wheels followed by a c1 old n new porsche I have a load more but I'm more interested in seeing yours in any build style. As long as its vw based so alternative bodies over vw chassis is ok too
Snake45 Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 IMC Beetle, started around 1969 or '70, finished in 2018 for the first BOYD build. AMT dune buggy, started around 1969, finished 2014.
Classicgas Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 (edited) I've got 2 more but no pics right now. Edited May 22, 2021 by Classicgas
Tom Geiger Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 What the?... I built this many years ago to represent a kit car done on a VW chassis.
Spottedlaurel Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 I didn't think I had anything to add here, I'd forgotten about this one: Built from a rally car kit with parts from the road car I threw together in 1984.
'70 Grande Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 My only example; I think it qualifies because its all VW beneath!
Russell C Posted May 24, 2021 Posted May 24, 2021 Only got a short stack of pure VWs, the GTI pickup is a shortened custom of the old Revell 32 scale kit I built in the early 1990s, while I explain in my Under Glass post how my directionally challenged Bug was actually aimed straight at the GSL 2019 Contest's Common Kit category. For Porsche, there's my avatar over there of my 911 Turbo woody wagon. Also built in the early '90s, Under Glass post here.
stitchdup Posted May 24, 2021 Author Posted May 24, 2021 Very cool builds guys. Russell, your backwards bug reminds me of something I have planned for a build. I think its a rendering or maybe even a model
Zippi Posted May 24, 2021 Posted May 24, 2021 Nice pics everyone. Reminds me of my father in-law back in the day. He owned an auto repair shop called Arrow Engines Service and he specialized in Volkswagen's. He would work on anything but he loved Volkswagen's.
NitroMarty Posted May 25, 2021 Posted May 25, 2021 I've built a few VW bodied drag cars..... And a couple of custom / tuner style builds..... And did someone mention Skoda......
