I really like this. Great build. I keep going back to soak up all the interior and engine details. Great paint work.

Nice color, nice stance, nice wheels. A looker for sure.

I love this little two seater,it just looks like a blast to drive. Yours is very nice. Perfect color choice. From what I can see, the interior looks well detailed too.

Wow, slick little ride. The color is awesome.

It has no tires and looks like in rides on rails. Also both ends have the front sections. I'm probably completely wrong, but it looks like it's used to transport workers to/from a work site

I like both of these, pretty neat. Is that a young Jimmy Buffet behind the wheel of the buggy?

That's cool. Never saw a build of this kit.

Louis, the level of detail is outstanding. Everything about this built is wonderful. I have this kit in the stash. I haven't started it yet, never sure how to approach it. If you don't mind, I'd like to save your photos as part of my reference when I'm ready to attempt it. Beautiful build. Thanks for posting.

Bingo!

Nice little bug. Very nicely detailed. My sister in law had an orange bug in the early '80s. Any engine pics?

Looks good Matt. Your efforts and persistence make this stand out. Great build.

This is from the December 1962 issue of Car Craft magazine. Thought you'd all get a laugh out of this. What other mob members can we add 62 year later?

I knew about the wheels but not the chrome option. Thanks for that.

This is one of my al time favorite cars, and I finally got around to replicating it. Except for wheels and tires, it's OOB. the paint is Testors bronze lacquer. While researching,I found a lot of different chrome treatments. Some had only the drip rails and some included the entire window surrounds as well. I opted to do just the vent windows. I thought it gave a cleaner look. This was a fun build and I think it came out pretty good. Comment and critiques are welcomed. Thanks for looking.

It looks good to me. Are those Nova Pro stock wheels?

This is really cool. Great dash detail.

Nicely done. Neat and clean. Good color combo.

Looks good. The level of detail is awesome. Color choices work nice with this cruiser.

Very nice. You don't see many with full fenders.

That came out nice. I'm usually not a fan of kit supplied custom wheels, but these look good. Beautiful paint.

It looks great. Very convincing weathering.

That's lookin' sweet. The color suit it. Very nice.

Nicely done David. It looks good in white. The engine is awesome.

I don't believe I've ever seen one of these built stock. The color is period perfect, smd I like the under hood detail. It's held up well.
