Are you going to do a 1/32 Wayne Carrini driver figure? :lol:
Looks very cool Dave, are you casting the Porsche engine?

Being a fellow VW man (air cooled, the only real VWs), I actually know that car. I am jealous you thought of it first. Good for you, buddy. Maybe I'll get busy on a second car to make an honorary mate for yours.

Nice choice of cars, Dave! Looks like the right motor, too (29k Slot.It red endbell). Now, you just have to tame it with the right gearing..............

Good luck!

Oh my Dave, that looks great! I have liked that car since I saw it on Chasing Classic Cars too.
Beautifully done, bravo!
