Here's few pics of some bugs I caught trying to drive through my town. I think a certain white one with a big 53 on it's side, red and blue stripes and a big personality is just around the corner ;)

Well it's any Volkswagon between 1950 and 1970. You pick:)

Yes, it at something like 130 prims right now. And I still have to make the interior!

Truely a fantastic build. And NOT just the cars . . .

Just a note

most volkswagons have 2 peashooters (exhausts), unless after market work has converted the muffler system.

Thanks for pointing that out :)

Oh my word!!!! I can't believe anyone would ask for a Maverick!!! LOL

That being said I had a 75 Maverick, with a straight six that thing could actually move. Too bad the body was 3 different colors of primer and the doors were falling off. lol

Thanks for the compliment! I'm EXTREMELY busy right now but I will add a Maverick to my list, be warned it's going to be a while before I can get to it!

LOL Yea my first car was a '76 Maverick, straight 6 206 cu. in., blue w/ the complimentary rust and bondo as well, and BROWN replacement vinyl seats! But I LOVED the thing!

As for modeling, I'm the patient sort! :) I will wait forever for quality work! :D

Can I get a w00t??! I can't wait to get in-world and see the other cars you have there!

Peace and Happy Building,
Arti

Just as an FYI I draw the line at:

Pintos
Chevettes
Yugos (I want to puke just saying the name) :)
Vegas and any car based on that platform

Sorry, I just can't do those!! I can't! lol

I grew up laughing at those cars because they were so small and cheaply made.

Wait a second, it might be a hoot to make a Pinto with only one gear, reverse and script it to blow up when it backs into something! LOL

Such a shame that someone would put all of that nice equipment on a car that is no better than a paperweight. Even a paperweight has more style than a Chevette.

Sorry, guess I still have issues with Chevettes! LOL
