Dominik Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 (edited) 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" ...

whale392 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
