I don't have many recent pictures that show the whole vehicle. Here it is in the middle the metal replacement
This is a plastic model I made in the 80's.
As we knew back then, Type IIs are much improved by big mudder tires on the back. I could back up uphill on wet leaves, drag horse carcasses, etc. The fender flares are Beetle rear fenders swapped side for side and trimmed to fit.
The side fairings and front bumper are plywood, the bumper being built up from 1/4" laminations, with a skin of redwood benderboard.
A newer addition is the 6" West Coast rear-view mirrors. They are mounted Dekotora style. In fact the bumper is sort of Hippie Dekotora.
If you recall, I need to settle on one project or another. The trade-off here is that the resale value is the highest vs the possiblity of working myself into a job.
