Finished the Beetle, fitting aint that good lots of molding had to be cut away, even so one rear wheel sticks out more than the other wheels.
Left the hood, boot and doors off, heres the pic's

Well it looks nice but wouldn't it be to fragile since there are no doors or rolbars inside. Are the rear wheels smaller then front or my eyes play tricks on me. Nice build.

rear wheels are miles bigger than front ones , and there is a roll cage type thing in it, the seat is apart of it -->>

i think he meant the wheels...not the tires. The wheels are the part that the tire goes around, the tire is the rubber part. The wheel looks small to mee too.

Yeah me too. The rear WHEELS do löök smaller.
Also i think it would look better with no wheel arches.

opps yes the wheels are same size, well thy better be as they are all from the same kit. the rear tie is basical 2 times the size of the front, but looking at pic at the angle it was taken the wheels do look smaller on back but they not ..lol
