Andria H Posted June 30 Posted June 30 was given an incomplete toy VW at a VW show & shine/swapmeet. The modifications were right up my alley, but lots of parts are missing, a bad paint job covered the stock iridescent light blue paint and I stripped it. Filled/deleted running boards lie under the currently drying Glidden matte black paint, door panels made from scrap styrene with lightening holes will be used & painted silver, a narrowed NASCAR dash face will be used with a Moon tank in the frunk, interior will be made to look like rat rod material with a '40 Ford bench seat, stripped rear seat area, headliner and inside package tray will be made the same way as the door cards and frunk floor, glass will be cut from scrap plastic and Tacky Glued to install, a parts bin 1957 Corvette steering wheel will be used inside, gauges detailed, extra gauges in the engine compartment, and maybe some custom decal graphics and definitely an old pre-EU German plate. Engine, exhaust, etc. are OK, but parts bin drag tires and Halibrand wheels will be used on cut bamboo skewer stock axles. Long ways to go from here, but it will be a fun little rebuild nonetheless. 4
