Hi GoodWrench :wave:
I usually do what I like, and enjoy them! If others like them, all the better! I like the camper, but I'm not a bug fan. I have several bugs on various chassis, and they just never seem to make it to the track here. If you like them both, then go for it! :thumbsup: Thats what makes this hobby so great, not everyone likes the same things, yet we all can enjoy the others great work!

Yep wally world specials, It looks like the camper maybe too tight a fit on a slimline, if thats the case, ill send it to one of you tjet nuts an let you make a cast, im not much into tjets
As for the bug, ive allways wanted a Herbie :D i may just mount it as a diecast being its a preaty light diecast

I was going to do the camper a few years ago and didn't care for the lack of detail on it. and it would be top heavy to run.

OH! Now thats a microbus! That color is dead-on, balls, perfect!
My sisters ex gal-pal had one that looked just like it! ( but the top was pop-up canvas)
Very nice indeed. Thanks for sharing!(now if you put a buff-chick in the drivers seat.... ):)
