Erik Smith Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 Here is my Revell Rabbit. Engine is from Clearly Scale. Wheels from Tamiya Skyline. Great little kit!
Kmb0319 Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 Utter perfection!!!! Incredible job... looks like you can drive off in it.
espo Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 That is an amazing looking build. Besides the obvious Paint and Trim detailing, this is now a kit I would look forward to building. The Mirrors mounted on the Fenders is not a common style here. I like the Bumpers removed. I had watched your build and I would get that engine also. Man this is just so nice to look at.
89AKurt Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 Love it! I ought to find your in-progress thread.... I test drove the GTi when they were new, compared to my '77 Civic it was awesome.
6bblbird Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 Ordinarily, I probably wouldn't have even looked at a thread about a Volkswagen ( I'm an American car bigot), but I'm glad I did! Terrific craftsmanship is terrific craftsmanship no matter what the subject matter! Beautiful job with incredible detail! WF
Silver Foxx Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 Super nice build , great paint and detail work .
DumpyDan Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 Well done, and the professional photo's are awesome. This looks good!
geetee66 Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 Very nice work, indeed! you nailed it. I owned a mk1 Golf a few decades ago. Great car. Mine had 130k on the clock and still went like a rocket! That engine upgrade looks like money well spent. I'm about to start one of these and I was hoping to use some 14" wheels to get it low. Having seen the underside of yours, I think I'll need to either rethink my wheel choice or tub the wells. maybe the 3 weeks wait for the engine won't be so bad, if I have to do suspension mods...
Roncla Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 I can only agree with what every one else has said. Thats one to be deservedly proud of.
Cool Hand Posted February 11, 2018 Posted February 11, 2018 Wow, super clean and crisp build Erik. Great job on all the detail work. In the right setting this would pass for a 1:1 for sure.
Rocking Rodney Rat Posted February 11, 2018 Posted February 11, 2018 Interesting subject matter....That is one of the cleanest builds I think I have ever seen. Put that in a diorama and most people would think it's 1:1. -RRR
bill lanfear Posted February 11, 2018 Posted February 11, 2018 I agree with everyone on this...very well built!
Flatout Posted February 11, 2018 Posted February 11, 2018 (edited) Awesome work Erik...so Dam clean! Edited February 11, 2018 by Flatout

peekay Posted February 11, 2018 Posted February 11, 2018 Great looking model, beautifully precise detailing.
Dann Tier Posted February 11, 2018 Posted February 11, 2018 Love it!!.....clearly scale -clearly beautiful!!!
unclescott58 Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 As others have noted, you did a very nice job. I'm also amazed how much smaller the car looks without the bumpers.
