Revell VW Cabriolet Skip's Drive-in Series.

Has anyone built on of these kits?

My mom got it at the swap-meet for $3 and there are no instructions with it and Revell's website no longer has a record of it.

Egad, those things are neat kits. I had one once, and all the little bits like the separate bodyside chrome pieces really set it off, even though the kit was tooled in the mid-60's.

It's certainly a good kit, very accurate and fun to build. But it's also very fiddly and prone to the fit of a kit that's been building flash over the lesser half of a century.

But, in the long run, when treated to careful building and a bit of TLC, it'll build into one helluva Bug. I'd recommend it well over Gunze Sangyo's, and only a step behind Tamiya's because of fit, as opposed to detail.

I hope that it doesn't take me too long to build with out the instructions.
