The end

With a last few details I call this one finished.

It has been an interesting journey with all the extra stuff that came along. It is not at all my best work, but I had fun, and now I know some of the stuff that can be improved on a Tamiya VW.

I may re-visit this one and improve a few details (like detail-painting), but as far as this topic is concerned it is declared finished.

Thank you for comments, info, votes and advice along the way @fiveten, @eb801, @luftwaffe-birdman, @holzhamer, @michel-verschuere, @jamesb, @1corsair64, @roofrat and @lgardner

Another time less classic. My family went through two black bugs in the 60's. I've survived two automobile accidents in bugs and had a room mate who thought it was good fun to tap the brakes and watch my nose hit the wind shield in the peoples car. Brings back memories.

Thank you for sharing Erick. Lurked through the thread and enjoyed every minute.
