A Wrought Bug... Done... :)
Posted by Brizio on Saturday, July 17, 2010 8:04 AM

I got this kit time ago, and the body is already painted, I think who painted used a spray can... The kit looks complete, but doesn't have instructions, and decals... :( Thanks to Highway, I have the instructions, for the decals I think is not a problem... :)

Soon some pics...

if you wanted to repaint it, you could try soaking it in Easy Off Oven Cleaner (high power one, not the caustic-free version). it'll strip off the paint and not damage the plastic.

Usually I use some brake fluid, but this time I didn't need it... :)

 

Here the model done... :)

Saw a 1:1 years ago and you see them in magazines sometimes. Never saw a model version. That is a great job. Really like the seats. what scale is it?

Brizio, couldn't stop thinking about this one. Can you tell me how did you fix the wires together? How about painting, what method did you use? Thanks in advance, have a nice day

Awesome! I just saw the real deal earlier this summer at the Volkswagen Museum in Wolfsburg. Yours looks spot on.
