PatW Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 The T Bucket shell came from.............. As a VW Aircooled fan since the '60's, over the years I've seen this type of body used with VW running gear and engine. My only problem with building this is that I have no spare aircooled engine or headlights! The wooden box at the back would have the engine in and the normal engine area at the front holds the fuel tank, that's why the fuel filler is there! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatW Posted May 17, 2018 Author Share Posted May 17, 2018 Thanks guys, yes weird and the flag? I was looking through an old Meyers Manx box and saw a tall aerial so I thought I'd better put a flag on that just in case I get lost in a desert somewhere! Well that's my excuse anyway!

PatW Posted May 18, 2018 Author Share Posted May 18, 2018 Thanks Jim, yes I painted the whole car, and thought it looked too shiny! So I got out various emery boards (womens nail files) of different strengths and rubbed it back! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
