I'm going to be a Beetle when I grow up



That was my plan for a name to this setting.



I'm thinking of doing a base and mount the two cars something like this.



I need to find a price cup for Herbie and a streamer celebrating the victory of some race.



And a small fan looking and dreaming of how he will be a famous race car when he grow up. They are stii to clean. I have to add some dirt when the base is done.



or is this the offspring from the love Herbie had with a Lancia in the movie Herbie goes to Monte Carlo?

Re: I'm going to be a Beetle when I grow up

This has to be one of the few threads on AF which made me laugh out loud--great idea! It would be cool if you could find a cobblestone base, for a European flavour.
