never seen that toy before, do you know who made it? I'd like one for my vw diecast collection

C1 resin trans kit but I didn't us the interior as it left no room for an engine. Since its a van I used a late model aircooled engine from the t3 bus so its double the usual horsepower for a beetle and a lower engine so the floor isn't too high. Speaking of the floor it a very heavily modifed one from the t3 camper so i could use the engine bay. I've also modifed a set of 70s beetle bumpers to look like early golf gti bumpers. I'm not sure what the wheels are from but they are heavily modified at the rear for maximum dish. Its also slammed but I'm sure you expected that, lol. So thats the 5th vw project i have on the go just now and i think I've managed to keep them all different enough to keep them interesting

Very nice, I like the look of the earlier side vents on the late body. I'll probably have to steal that idea from you

You'll probably find the pegasus brakes are for big diameter rims so you might be better just using the calipers on some appropriately sized washers or even just making your own calipers to use on washers.

Nice project, I think it will work pretty well on the camaro. Are you going for the stupidlong n tall exhausts too?

I build a lot of vws and the whole v.a.g. family of vehicles is my preference. I do build other stuff too and like anything custom. Just now my bench is weighed down with multiple vws but I have a speedboat and some USA pick ups next in line

Further to my post in what irked you, a few months ago, I am pleased to announce that the local council have suspended charging for new bins. This isn't jus a benefit to me, there are hundreds of other people that now wont have to buy a new bin when the binmen damage them.

off the top of my head this one stands out in my memory

I've seen them done with the elements from car headlight bulds and it looked pretty convincing

Not at all sir, I havent tried it on resin though so it may soften it

Cool car, not something I expected to see as a kit. I find bleach strips the chrome in less than ten mins, and you can pour it down the sink after

So along with the 3 bugs I'm also building a couple of curbside t1s. The bus just needs the chrome added and a little more weathering on the soft top and its ready for final assembly. The wheels are brm from uscp and I'm using the ribbed bumpers from the recent revell camper as the smooth ones supplied in the hasegawa kit weren't to my taste and the ribbed ones give it an earlier look Next we have the hasegawa pick up. I was at a bit of a loss as to how to build it different until I remembered I had the turntable ladder from the heller delaheye kit sitting unused (the delaheye is being turned into a car hauler with matching delaheye custom). I am using porsche 968cs wheels and brakes from the hasegawa kit and have lowered it by raising the floor into the body. Since I dont have any older type blue lights I'm probably going to colour some orange ones in red. I got the ladders (over 4 feet of them) and turntable assemled and painted earlier but dont have any pics of that yet As you can see my bench is pretty packed with vws just now

yes sir, heres the full pic

I've seen a few of the emek ones detailed up and they look pretty good

Here we go folks, I wont worry too much about the year

1961 buick electra?

If you have any of the aoshima stanced nissan (early skylines etc) the tyres from the stock parts are a decent fit on the tamiya wheels

It shouldn't be much longer, euro release around june I believe

If you have nothing else deodrant sprays work, just spray loads on til it wet, leave a couple mins then it wipes off

Heres my crown jewells 1, vw hebmuller resin trans kit 2, belkits mk1 escort 3, aoshima datsun cedric lowrider

try fred aldous, thats where i get my bmf

I ordered a takeaway from one of the local chinese restarauns tonight. I said to make it up to 20 quid with sweets meaning bars of chocolate etc. Instead I got a carrier bag of penny sweets. I guess there was a miscommunication somewhere but I feel sorry for the person that had to count them out

That kid done well, and I'm sure opened a few eyesI'm looking forward to the americas list. It would be nice to see racers from the rest of the world take them on but I guess that wont be happening any time soon..
