Ira Posted October 24, 2012 Author Posted October 24, 2012 COOL WILLY GETS A NEW HELMET!!! Not much room between the roof of the BuG and Willys head, so I decided to make a helmet for him. First I wrapped a strip of Solder around Willys head and glued it in place. I applied putty behind the solder and started rounding out the Helmet area with putty. Here are a couple of photos after the putty has been sanded a bit...
Ira Posted October 24, 2012 Author Posted October 24, 2012 You bring back alot of memories every time I look at your CarToons builds. Great job so far. Corey Thanks Corey!

Psychographic Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 (edited) Hey, I think I've had a run in with this fella before. And come to think of it, he was driving a bright green thing then too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Edited October 25, 2012 by Psychographic
BluePopsicle Posted October 26, 2012 Posted October 26, 2012 Lovin' that green Ira. It looks very deep.
Ira Posted October 26, 2012 Author Posted October 26, 2012 Simply off the hook!! Thanks Jacen! Coming along very nice. Thanks Ray!
Ira Posted October 26, 2012 Author Posted October 26, 2012 REVELL EMPI...MuD BuG!!! I found this old sheet of decals that were perfect for the BuG! The Inch Pincher Too!/Revell Empi Decals were a little brittle and broke up a bit, but I did manage to get them in place... I painted the inside of the body with Light Tan. I also painted some details with Flat Black. Where's the MuD?
Ira Posted October 27, 2012 Author Posted October 27, 2012 Hey, I think I've had a run in with this fella before. And come to think of it, he was driving a bright green thing then too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yep, Cool Willy is back! Here he is in his Willys... He will be wearing a Helmet & Race Gear for this ride!
Ira Posted October 27, 2012 Author Posted October 27, 2012 WE HAVE A ROLL BAR!!! I made this Roll Bar with Flexible Plastic Rod... I had to position the Bar outside the window because there was no room inside! Next I cut lengths of Plastic Tubing and added more bracing to the Roll Bar. I painted the Bars with Testors Aluminum.
BluePopsicle Posted October 27, 2012 Posted October 27, 2012 Ira...I don't know what else to say. I'm lovin' this build.
Ira Posted October 28, 2012 Author Posted October 28, 2012 Lovin' that green Ira. It looks very deep. Thanks Jon!
Ira Posted October 28, 2012 Author Posted October 28, 2012 KEEPING IT COOOL!!! I think this Cooler was from a Ferrari. It will be perfect for an Oil Cooler or Turbo Cooler! Rear View...
cobraman Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 I like the way the rollbar comes through the rear window.
