I've discovered this car in yellow with fuchs repro, after in matt brown, and now it's green with red wide five. Terrible.
interior with nice 8 ball shifter knob.

Man, I love that thing^
The proportions and details are spot on, it doesn't even look custom and that's why it rules.

I thought this Bug Truck looked familiar:
I talked to the owner @ the Euro Bug-In in 2011, Since I'm from Connecticut, I wondered why he had that plate on a car in Belgium, he said the cops don't really care about that sort of thing !

My dad and I built one of these in the 90's. We got the truck/ bug body from a junk yard, as it had been in a front end accident. Put a new beam on it and a one piece Baja front end. Literally had it done in two weeks. So much fun to drive.

^^^ Both of those ( the black one and blue one) are Domus Flatback kits. I had one in the early 90's. Pretty solid, well made kit, too. They were advertised in magazines well into the 90's.
