Started this build with the back half from spare parts of the original kit. Other spare parts are the chassis and radiator. That's the plan anyway. Thanks for the spares Starryeyes! I can't seem to be able to rotate the pics on my phone. Uh oh.

Did some "bending" on the chassis. The nailhead came from the 22 jr kit and will be tooned up a bit.

Side panels and thin strips were from plastic sheet. Cowl is from a '29 Ford pickup. Axle came from the Ohio George toon kit. I had to elongate it to fit the body. Lots of parts from the stash. Wicked Red paint.

Rear tires from the Ohio George kit, fronts courtesy of Davey. Fink was 3-d printed from a STEM instructor from work. Not hi-res tho. I made the legs, injectors tubes, and tail. Arms from the Der Beetle Bus. Top is sheet aluminum. It's done.
