Okay guys, here's a photo of the beast of and engine that will go into this project. I glued the Revell kit engine halves together then added an oil cooler?after doing all this I realized I could have just glued two squares together.(oh well, that's half the fun LOL) Stay tuned theirs alot that goes in this engine. Right now I am aligning the engine block to the tranny to the driveshaft to rear end should have that done shortly, then I hope I can set the wheels to get it to look right(learned that from my last project) thats it for now I will have more pics. soon as I charge my camera batteries.......... Thanks for looking...Bob................  |

Ok guys, Little update. I got the basic chassis built as well as the front end, and as you can see i've mocked up the engine to tranny to rear end, it needs some modifications to get it right. next step is to work on the complicated engine,good thing I know "DJ" he's been alot of help with his knowledge on VW engines. Hey Danno, I don't think this body will be resin cast (I'm not a resin caster), looks like it will be a one-off body. Till next time enjoy the pics. Thanks Bob.   Excuse Me Bob... For Editing your Post to Read Correctly...
It was to wide for the average monitor!!!!
ADMIN.... ;D |

Ok, Been a while but here are a couple photo's of Killer bug progress. I am kind of all over the place with this one so bear with me. A friend of mind made me the blower pulleys but he gave me a twin drive idler pulley instead of a twin drive cog pulley so that set me back, so I stared work on the fuel pump and other parts. here are two pics of fuel pump. thanks Bob.   |
