Mattblack Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 This simple snap-together kit caught my eye in a model shop when I was on holiday in the summer. Built out of the box apart from felt 'carpet'. The paint is Plasti-Kote metalflake, the base is made from a piece of vinyl floor tile covered with builder's sand.

Classicgas Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Cool little kit. Bears a resemblance to AMT's Meyers Manx. How small is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake45 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Very very cool! Never seen that Rustoleum metalflake green before, but I have a big can of a Krylon metalflake green that looks very similar and I'm itching to squirt it on some kind of dune buggy. Well done and model on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about 4 3/4" long overall. According to the decals it's an Empi Imp, but the packaging just calls it a 'VW Buggy'. I'm not sure about the engine... Corvair maybe?
