VW Karmann-Ghia

[Mr. Me.]

Hello guys. That`s my current project. It is Tamiya VW Karmann-Ghia from Historic car series. I`ve painted it TS-20 Metallic Green.
I`ve recently understood that I am classic cars fan and decidedto build all Historic Cars.
Hope you like it


What do you think?

i like the color, a polished clear coat would really make it shine. i'm thinking white walls, what are you thinking?

[Mr. Me.]

I am not really sure about white walls. Wheels (and every thing) would be stock I think.

I'd say, with that colour, you can go nuts! I'm guessing it's not a stock colour... I built this kit a few years ago in black and it's a nice kit. The engine is ripe for some extra detailing, though. Keep us posted.

[Mr. Me.]

I`ve made an engine


and hood. or trunk. I don`t really know how it is called on cars with engine in the rear

[andrew landon]

i belive it is the engine hood and the front is the hood. looks cool. i need to get this and build it for my dad.

Good job so far

I also think that with this paint you need custom rims, why not old Porsche rims, like 356?
It's exactly the same colour I painted my convertible bug.

Looks good so far. It'd still be the hood to me, since the engine is underneath. and the front would be the trunk, since that's where the storage is.

[Mr. Me.]

tiny update.

and if I find Porshe 356 wheels I`ll put them

[deedlit]

Don't want to hijack your thread but this is how it looks like with 356 rims VVV



Pure old-speed look

[bigfrit]

Nice looking green one!

great paint too, we want to see more!

[Mr. Me.]

I`ve found that 356 rims looks like stock, they are just wider.

[Mr. Me.]

It`s me again... made stock tires white-walls. what do you think about it?

[Wheelin75r]

I'm sure the white walls will look awesome on it!
