I think this is the 3rd body out of the mould.
1st one was built by kcc back in the days.
2nd one was build by volkspares for the volkspares drag beetle
and mine is the 3rd one.

From what I understood the next one will be for Ivan at Volkspares.

There is a shit load of work on the body to make it decent enough for painting. But when she is done it's gonna look awesome. I was thinking of candy red. Any suggestions??

Looks nice, but not my style.

Any ideas for door hinges?

With the chopped roof those side windows are a tad on the small side. I dont think that i'll fit through them. :)
