    Hi guys... I bought this model a while ago and yesterday I accidentally dropped it, since it now wasn't minty collectors state anymore I decided "screw it" and have some fun on 1:36/43 scale (I believe)

    I went though my Wheel/Tires/Rims bucket and found rotf scout breakdown's!

    And then used a salvage TF pin heated it and mounted the wheels...
    (forgot to take pic of the full process... that's a first :p )

    A few large dots of hotglue and superglue and voila!
    (if in the future a have wheels that better resemble I will swap)

    I tried to have a copy of my current car...
    (which I can't bl**dy use longer than 15-20min at a time due to my health)

    Both the model and the real one (unfortunately) are for sale :cry 

    Now I go to sleep ;)

    Hey Brother! Sorry to hear about your poor health..I know how rotten it feels to be in bad shape & be in almost constant fear of losing the things you love, I face it nearly ever day myself.

    Here's to hoping you don't lose your sweet Veedub ( both of 'em! :D  ) & that your health gets better fast! I'll put in some prayers for ya too if that s cool with ya!

    Peace & God Bless amigo!

    Health? What have I missed dude?

    I am seriously wanting to go to Worthersee Treffen next year, you should go too and we can have a mini tf/VW meet!!

    Awesome cab. Simple but that's what you need. I prefer yours to the clipper cab. Bleugh.

    Yeah I'm think about writing a story about myself so that anyone who has questions can revert to that :rolleyes: 
    it's since 2008, but long story short possibility's of getter better are 5-10%
    well luckily customizing and my awesome GF keeping me sane...

    Yeah I love the red/black contrast instead of the 1color clipper look :) 
    I'm afraid no more car meetings for me for the rest of my life :(  I can't drive more that 15-20min tops!

    AND ALL YOU GUYS AT TFW2005 HAVE A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART!
