Looks sharp Alan. I like the way the red and white interior make it " POP" .

Now this has got to be a motor home that "Sparky" Griswald would drive. Holiday road oooooo ooooood

Beautiful build !

Looks good to me !

Man ! That is some heavy flake David. I can't say I dislike it but it may be just a tad too busy for my tastes.

That would make one very cool model.

That's a beautiful Jag.

Smaller front tires would make a difference I think. I will have to see if I have any and maybe I will switch. I did shoot dullcoat on the wheels to tone them down. About the black, I wanted to stay with the look of the original. I used flat, semi and gloss but I get your point. I did use some dark metal color on the blower and the drive shaft. If you do go ahead with one please lets us see it.

Nice color.

That looks great. Very smooth.

Thanks guys for the nice comments. I am not all together happy with it is it kind of looks like I put it together with my feet !

I for one would read that thread. It would be interesting to learn a little more about the people we "meet" here in this forum.

Worked some more on "The Bug 2". More to do but almost done. I need to get a white gel pen to to the name on the cowl. I tried with a small brush and also a toothpick but the results were less than desired. Still needs some work and some touch up but should be done by the end of the weekend. I hope I caught the flavor of the original but the jury is still out here. Thanks for looking.

WOW ! This build is soooooooooooo cool. Your work is flawless.

Sounds like a tough job. I would love to see it if you can pull it off.

Great ! I will be watching this build with great interest.

Coming along great !

Engine does look good and the seat belts look very good.

OK. Got some work done on "The Bug 2" today. Most parts are coming from the Fiat chassis from the Double Dragster as I have said so keep in mind this is not going to be a replica of the original car but kind of a Bug 2.0 . I cut down the body from the kit that was a part for the rail dragster and that will be the cowl for this build. Fuel tank is from the parts box as it the helmet. The "mailbox" scoop for the engine needed something. What good is a mailbox if it doesn't have a red pick up flag ? The frame is out in the garage drying. Most of this build will be mostly black as it the original car but I will try and have at least some contrast with some other dark colors and 3 shades of black. Thanks for looking. As always comments good or bad are welcome. \

Love it ! One of my favorite non military planes.

That is one very cool looking Mustang. Good job !

Me thinks you were more than a little drunk brother. : )

Those kits build up real nice.

Cool ! Looks great !

I remember back to the .15 price. Those days are long gone and never to return.
