I just completed this one.  It's painted with Gravity Colors Herbie Off White, which is actually VW Pearl White. Clear coat is Gunze Mr. Super Clear.

Below is a link to my build thread:

Hey thanks guys!  I had fun with this one.  It was something I wanted for decades and I finally have a Herbie.

The decals were made by a friend a while ago.

Very nice results.  The first time I've seen the cloth roof installed so that you don't see the pegs on the sides!   This is a great kit.  At the time Polar Lights was onto a new way to produce a kit... simple enough for the casual modeler to pop together in an hour or two, but detailed enough to allow us loonies to go wild on it.

Thanks Tom!  Removing the pegs on the sides of the cloth roof was one of the first things I did.  The cloth roof piece still has the pegs underneath to position it.  I just glued it in place with some epoxy.

Mike.
