Ooops - I forgot to give details. I used an old 1/20 Lindberg Psychedelic Surf Buggy with some skinny front tires I found in the parts box to match the rear tires. I had a partial glue bomb Mother's Worry with no feet or face so I stuck in a Japanese talisman face I had. Stuck some Rat Fink feet on him. And a whole load of bondo. The hat is from Wade A. Minit. Still have lots of putty work, have to fix the broken finger, affix some wheels and do the engine. I was going to put a big shifter in but he looks better holding the surfboard with his right hand.

After a long delay moving to a new town I finally can get back to Dudley. Finished the engine and attached it to the pan. Found some metal chrome cones at Michaels that make great exhaust tips. Also found a smaller set of matching front tires with matching chrome steelies and baby moons. Found and attached Dudley's pinky finger. Put dash decal on. Just a little more putty on Dudley and I can start painting him.Attachment Deleted |

Finished the dune buggy and got the first base Attachment Deletedcoat on Dudley. Looks like McLaren orange to me but it is called caboose orange. |

I'm liking this. He'll fit right into the Roth/Weird-Ohs crazed driver lineup!  |
