7.20 gmt and theres a problem with the unread content menu. the first page of results repeats and nothing from more than 5 hours ago is showing up in the results -
me and my friends made one of these into a beach buggy in our early teens, if only we knew what we had as it was in pretty good condition when we got it. we drove the engine out of it (literally, we hit a bump and the engine fell out)

Nunu racecar kit with uscp interior upgrade and a few printed extras. I'll get better pics once i can get it outside

shockingly its comletely box stock after i couldn't find wheels i liked. I tried to give more of a concept car feel. the dark pic shows the colour best

a little more progress. i trimmed one chassis? rail to clear the engine and the rear seats are very close to lining up with the door trim so i've been adjusting that. since the trim is so clse i'll swap to the audi front seats too

also, it said there were interchangable sizes and the size you are looking at was one of the sizes -

the tyre would be measured to the seat of the bead so being industrial there could be 3 inches behind the rim -

very nice, i'll be able to build a reme beetle now as i have a hasegawa kubelwagen for the chassis -
as you may be able to tell, i completely forgot the first line of the post and was refering to chip and pretzel dust, lol
-
lick them? no sense wasting the flavoured dust

Nice work, i could see this being built on one of tv car shows

its a scam and if it worked it would be illegal in the same way those code grabbers car theives use are. just owning one proves intent to steal copyrighted material

this one is faster than a lotus f1 car (in a straight line only) well i tried to share a link but since it involves alcohol it wouldn't let. stupid youtube rules, lol. just search for aardbeg tracTOUR and it pops up

thanks guys. I cant take the credit for the roof conversion though, i'm using the same parts Claude did as they worked so well on his

A couple of years back Claude Thibodeau shared a custom new beetle van he had built. The idea has sorta festered until a couple of days ago when my alpine hit a pause (i like to do foil in the sunshine)so it hit the bench. I'm using the rear roof from a revell pt cruiser snap kit and the rest is mostly tamiya new beetle. Now in the vw tuner scene theres a custom style called oem+ and means all the parts come from mostly higher end vw group cars, though some ferrari and mercedes wheels are ok, so thats the style this will be getting. To acheive this i have removed the rear seat from an audi e-tron and used 3d printed seats from blackbox for the fronts. The wheels will be resin bentley continentals. at the moment i'm filing the body to match the bug as the cruiser is much rounder than the bug and this has to look unmodified. The engine is a 3d printed vw r32 vr6 and i might canabalise a fujimi kit to get the 4x4 parts. i want this to appear stockish when its finished
