Long ago and far away I had a Bug. Doing body and paint, mine was customized. Pop Doors, shaved dropped and done up 'Cal-Style'.
Recently I was given an old kit where the body had been hand painted many years ago but was otherwise unbuilt and complete.
After stripping the old paint the body was cleaned up and primed.
My old bug had chromed rimes with Porsche center caps. To model similar I chopped some 'trim rings' to go with painted rims and the kit caps. Sourcing some 'big-n-lils' required Dremel action to fit the rims to parts box rubber.
So we're off to a start. Hope you enjoy watching.
