Finally finished this one! Had a few problems, engine was not cooperating. Paint is Testors Gloss Yellow in a can and red Dupli-Color. I didn't like the kit tires or wheels. I painted the kit wheels and added upholstery nails for hubcaps (Thanks VW Dave). I went to a single gauge on the dash so it would be simple like a VW. This was a month long build for me for some reason, I stalled several times on it and a vacation break in the middle. Next one might go faster I hope and it will be an all out Dune Buggy! Thanks for looking. DSC03773.jpg

Sorry, looks like I am having as many problems with this computer as I did with the model. :lol: I think it's the super glue maybe on my fingers, or sticky keys. ;)

Turned out great. This is closer to how most of these looked when some guy at home had an old VW and a basic tool box to work with. Very nice.

I think it looks great ! A real daily driver ! Don't feel bad , for such a simple little kit , this thing can drive a person nuts !

Does anyone else hate the tiny taillights in this kit ?

Thanks for all the comments guys! I did mention I would build another but, I didn't say when. :lol: As far as the tail lights go, I like them only I wish the lenses were a little more detailed. Thanks for looking.
