VW German Feldgendarmerie Eastern Front

Post by Rob59 »

Last winter I did a little "in between Project".
Due to the fact my workshop in the basement is not ready yet, I worked this project in the living room.
Small item, easy to pic up and put away again, so the lady of the house had nothing to complain about.

I bought a 1:18 VW beetle, and transformed it into a vehicle from the "Feldgendarmerie"
Made lots and lots of pics during the proces, but I just show you some before and after ones, okay?

Here we go:

What do you think......would I have a chance with this Beetle, in competing in the TOM contest?
:haha:
Hope you enjoyed my little project?

I have another beetle laying in bits and pieces. Also a 1:18 model, which I will rebuild into a reconnaisance vehicle in a 3 way came.
Also a little project for next winter or so.

Cheers, Rob.
