Hello !
I'm 26 years old and I live in France.
Everyone had probably seen the VW New Beetle and the BCG version :
This car should be the descendant of the first VW Beetle air-cooled designed during the 2nd World War.
So VW called this Beetle by the "New Beetle". But this last had nothing about the meaning of "Volkswagen" in german, "People Car", because of the price. The New Beetle costed like the Golf Mk4, but it's less confortable.
Then the buyers choose the Golf. |

Now, it seems that VW had stopped the production of the New Beetle. What a pitty !
They don't know what we could do in modifying this ride !
That's why I work on BCG, because of the tiny size, it's easier and quicker to obtain a good looking New Beetle. :wink:
As you know, it's possible to repair a wreck like a VW air-cooled to get something like this :

First step, I mold a Tomy BCG New Beetle body. Then I work on a resin copy.
I cut every glasses and enlarge the wheels wells. The New Beetle seems to be like an Off Road car.

And the rear engine has been molded by using the Green Stuff. Exactly like the first Beetle.

The only real New Baja I've seen on Internet was that :
Not really cool than that :
I prefer those last old school Baja because they look fun ! But the New Baja I've found are too much stock. |

Well done, at all. The structur seems to be partially rough, but the entire impression is swinging.
In this weeks I´am myself training a couple of beetles for my next movie, and i know how much work they cause...
btw: why did you paint the engine black? Looks better before.

Thanks !
About the engine, I don't know. I would like to test it in dark grey, but you may right. In silver it's better ! |
