My new Beelte
What do you guys think of my new Beelte? I can not and would not try to take credit for the paint job. He tried to match the '67 Bahama Blue. It's close.
Pictures. What do you guys think? I'll try to bring it to shows with me this summer.

Is the snow in Kentucky usually that deep, and the roadside shrubbery always that big?

Haha, I had to dig it out this morning. Those shrubs are huge, they're like trees.

Pretty slick Mikey! Don't look like you got much head room either (unless your only 10 inches tall)

Me thinks there is too much chrome on that Bug for the German Look styleee..... And dem funny fings on the roof is going to cause way too much aerodynamic drag
wicked! Posts like this gets me in trouble, cause I get blamed for having too many hobbies/interests.... Good thing there isnt a hobby shop with dem fings close by me!!! The missus will kill me.

I was wondering how many people would mistake it for a real car.

I told the guy that painted it, I don't care what you do. I just want it to be real scale looking. I love it. I can't wait to see it in person. He told me the decals were a nightmare since they're 10 years old, they dried out. He said he did the best he could. About 23 hours in the body total, I think.

Hey Mike,
That's awesome !! I certainly had to do a doubletake on that one I always wanted one of those RC Baja bugs.... but they are hard to come by...plus I already have too many projects and not enough time... Rob. |
