Loving the rear window fabrication Interested to see what you do for the rivets surrounding it Ok those CNC videos are just super

You will have to display her on a mirror to show off her beautiful belly!!!

Gorgeous, simply gorgeous

Made a copper floor pan, external oil cooler and a rear leaf spring with its mounting rod The rear springs are weird looking on this Bug, the fronts have a more traditional leaf spring look Whoa, those look a little rough polish wise in the photos, lots of clean up to do! The copper was a garden product used as a slug repellent around plants. I just folded two layers over and soldered the edges together after i bent it to shape so it gave the rigidity I wanted, then bent it around a pipe for the driveshaft space

That is a good tip...just watch out for fuzzies lifting off your clothes or in my case dog fur

. And in a number of smaller builds....that will help with frame alignment when I solder the Bug up I like your tube cutter as well. My little plastic one doesn't cut squat, especially small diameter tubes we use Ps I was fondling the Pocher Testarossa kit just last night The engine detail upgrade needs an engineering degree to figure it out

Oh, I like that

Loving the body and especially wheel colours....very nice build!!!

You are a bad influence according to my wife.....my kit arrived from Japan today I have a 1/12 Ferrari coming also

A very sharp build!!!

Dang, didn't see the original post date...it has arisen from the dead! Zombie General Lee!!!

I found a set of blueprint plans online for a Type 59, printed them out at work and brought them home. I would love to say I did some brilliant calculations to make it 1/32 scale, but no. Blind stupid luck allows this printout to match exactly to my 1/32 build. I have to adjust my frame a bit, but between the model kit and these plans I have a decent guideline. Blind luck, take it when you can get it! Oh, the wheels were from a source suggested by my other good friend on here Skip Jordan....they are bang on beautiful, Skip!!!

Always good to hear from the Master of Brass Really Randy, I am so thankful for your tips, suggestions and especially encouragement. This won't be a smoking nice build that makes a magazine cover or wins show prizes, but it will be something I made myself I thank you for helping me along

Great looking build, loving the brake line details Well done!!!

Great job, good looking General!!!

Such a great colour combo on these cars, a favourite of mine as well......you did a fine job on ALL of them!!!

Great looking collection of Italians you have there!!!

Loving the Gulf livery....great stuff

The carpet looks great and lays superbly. Interior is going to be as gorgeous as that engine!!!

Awesome project work I bet those doors will close with the nice solid clunk like a well made vehicle does

I figured that, just hassling you

Thanks, that is exactly what I am doing....practice I have another build on the side so switch to this in between

Rear frame extensions soldered. In the pic the top rail was little chips of solder and the bottom rail I added solder from the whole wire. A ton more finishing for the lower blob Sanded to square, not final polish as more drilling for cross members. I am done for now, going outside for some sun and yard work

Usual or unusual.......I prefer to be called unusual thank you very much

Front extensions soldered, rear ones cut still need to solder Burnt my hand setting up this photo......darn stuff stays hot even after quenching in water
