Hi all,

Sorry for the late updates to my project but I haven't a lot of time to complete my thread. :o
I know that I'm a slow modeler but here is the latest progress.

I stopped working on the trailer, I have problems to realise the rear door and my motivation needs to be reoriented on a CAR.
So, I've begun the 1967 Hasegawa Beetle.
Sorry for the crappy pics, I can't fix the macro mode.

I cut the passenger door and the door panel to.



Chassis is finished


I detailed the bottom of the seats. Created a frame under the seats with piano strings and the swinging armature.


Here is a pic of a real seat to show you how it should look.


Chassis with seats on (seats unpainted , fixed with buddies)


Behind rear seat I created a strap with PE-parts. This strap is hooked to keep the seat "open".


I've scratchbuilt the hook for the trailer.


Here is the plan I used to create it.


And how the beetle looks now.


I've still so much work to do, I become a bit discouraged .
Still doors, panels, dashboard to finish. Don't hope progress pics soon , I don't know when I'll continue on this one.

Give me some motivation, and it' ll be finished before Xmas 2004.

Comments are welcome.
