Hallo buddies and all fans of aircooled vehicles.

Today i want to show you my first built old beetle ever. My brother and i work on this cars in 1:1 since 1992 and last year in august i built this one.

Like my bulli "Horst", this one tells a story too and so he became a diorama with a small shoppingmal.

What have i changed?

- wiring engine and all cables a beetle has

- two-tone paintjob and custom decals from a "Nailart studio"

- front and rear hood lock

- bamboo shelf under the dashboard

- export bumpers with supports - as it must be

- Seats soft cuddly

- Interior Detail tricked, so that's fit to issue

- Right mirror left out because he is not the same as the type of the left and "ugly" is

- give him licenseplates

Here we go with my favorite black/white pictures, my "Shoppingqueen - VW Käfer 1300"

The Black & White pics were almost to the point of being realistic (I had to look twice). The color shots.....WOW, blinded by the Queen!

Very cool Bug and diorama setting, I love both.
