Porsche 911 targa 1965 >> BobbyCar conversion

[voyageur]

Good evening,

today I finished something rather small. I converted a 1965 Porsche 911 targa to represent a stylish Bobbycar.
Don't know what the heck a BobbyCar is? Well, here you go:

I guess most of you had one of those originals as the first "car" in your lives.

BobbyCar conversion












And this is how it looks along with a suitable transporter:






The conversion was pretty much straight forward:

>> remove rollbar
>> cut seats
>> shape Evergreen sheet (3 layers)
>> putty and sanding
>> Revell SM302 + black flocking
>> mount steering wheel, done!

Hope you like it a little

PS: the Volkswagen T2a and the 997 are 1:24 scale (Welly)
