Newbie- VW Sambabus

Hey guys,

I am new here. I live in Belgium, 28 years old. Had a motorcycle
accident in 1996 and eversince I am paralised and still missing some functionality in my hands. So if you see some defaults, please don't shoot me

Just wanna show my bus
It is a Hasegawa-kit with Pegasus wheels. Colours are Tamiya racing green and sand[maybe not so good to see on the pictures].
Hope you like it.

Looks very nice
Exactly my taste

Daylight pictures should give justive to your model. If you do, I can't wait for more

I'm 28 and from Belgium aswell, and I DO like old VW's Maybe I've already seen you in a belgian modeling show

Yeah, you're right but lots of people name the Type2 bus as a samba. Even if it has no windows. General mistake.

Had one in my hands this summer but thought it was a bit over priced so it stayed in the shop. Very nice, like it a lot!

No, too many things to do, not enough time.

If you were in Jabbeke in 2003 and 2004, I was there too. And if you remember my 'rust' brown beetle , you stoppped on our stand. The world is so small

Yo Mike, thx the comments. Hope your goïng to fix a bus know that you've seen mine. I really like those busses.
My brother is making the pick-up version. And I'm looking for the one with the windows, wanna make it Californian style.

P.S. The Hasegawa-kit won't let you down, it fits perfectly!
