Realistic VW Beetle toy plans.
Hi all, I've been asked to make a Beetle and this time I think I'll go down the bought plans route, I'm looking for something that looks pretty close in shape and profile to the real thing. Thanks, any suggestions welcome.
Carlos.

Hi (nose press) Kiwi75, If you want a beetle specifically then go no further, however, if you're after a WV you might want to try this out (only because you were speaking of shekels for plans).

Dutchy also has a great set of blogs on it's build starting here...
PS. I don't get a commission... not even a bloody pair of clogs out of sawdust... but he is a friend!
