First update:

Order this
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-Beetle-body...QQcmdZViewItem

should be here next week

Since the cover has the wheel openings closed i can shape the fenders to the original. Along I will try and make a floorpan and the trans, engine, axles and wheels to fit under as in a real beetle.

I will post pics to follow.

For my body kit version i will use either thin pvc sheets so i can shape them, and epoxy to mount them and filler paste to perfect the final model

Im thinking of doing half stock and half modified, and seperate them with a pvc wall running across the centreline of the car.

also i will try to make the roof spoiler (lip) that goes above the rear window
