first gen buggy with their fiberglass/chassis should be interresting to build... I have still some work to make a near perfect beetle running

François67 is working faster than me on my shell! nice rusty effect and narrow front axle from an FG on a hpi baja!

Aww that looks amazing and I love the stinger in the back. Beautiful car nice job.

Is that real rust or have you simulated it somehow? If it's not real, how would you get that look on a fiberglass body?

this is just a paint from my friend François67, he work in cinema FX studio, so he's a good painter

first contest... first prize, here is a bette photo

Looks Great!!

DAYUUUM Stef,

awesome VW Bug body and details. Somehow I imagine it might be cheaper to build a real thing than the RC-version all things considered. Also to add realism one could put in the OS FF-320 Pegasus 54cc nitro fourstroke boxer four in it and make VW style exhaust (snakepit) and mount it in the rear as it should be. That thing would thus have authentic sound too.

I have one of those engines in my quarterscale Pitts Special and it is a powerful engine and with headers is a real screamer and sounds really good.

This is a video of my plane's maiden flight. I made the exhaust myself.

hi, i am not engine specialist, but maybe one day! a nice rear engine should be cool. I don't have much time to work on it because building a new home, but i have a lot to do with this shell!

How much for one of those Vw bodies shipped to Iowa

I hope for his family their home has more progress than the Beetle.
Waiting for more than 12 months

Hi,

Nice VW Beetle body! Are you selling copies of it?

Kind regards,

Marcel

thanks, i don't have finished my new home/workshop so i can't work on it.
Now I only build complete static cars with it. "RC people" don't like to pay too much fot a bodyshell, so now i prefer to sell to static enthusiast!
i only drive this orange one which was not perfect
