I have had this finished for awhile, thought I'd post a few pictures, thanks go out to MG Mitch and Bananapirate for their customs and Pickelhaube and the Woofer for suppyling some parts you just can't buy, anyway here it is.

Cool looking custom.

Thanks, wish I was better at weathering, it truly is a art, maybe someday I'll have the time to master it.

Thanks alot, the VW is a 1951 Maisto. Not the correct year, but you get the rear split windows.
