Hi folks,

inspired by the classic Disney movie I was watching a couple of days ago when sitting at my workbench I finally found a great use for my sheet of Patto´s HERBIE decals I have already laying around for some years:

This car will be my stock T-Jet racer for next weekend´s race event now!

Another resin bug, that should have been turned into a Herbie too, ended up a bit unusual:

I´ve never seen a dirt track special bug before but anyway: I like her! Not only does she look hot, but she´s a great fun runner as well (maybe due to its additional brass rod weight)!

O.K. - back to my work bench again. I promised my son a personal Herbie...

Have a nice rest of this Sunday (rainy over here...)!

I have to agree with you there Claus, that dirt track special is "Mean" looking... :thumbsup:

Always loved "herbie" just haven't seen the new movie yet. Keep up the great work.

...for all your nice comments!

I think I´ll have to mess up another bug body again soon as my first "dirt track special" definitely needs a companion...
