Posted January 27, 20169 yr I am relatively new here so I shall start by showing off my latest model that's actually finished. I really like this car so I had to make it and I posted it on LEGO IDEAS so if you like the model please support it Original colors and removable stiff roof can be replaced by imitation of folded convertible roof I photoshopped it here by changing the colour to preferable medium azure. engine and it can be easily removed trunk with a suitcase with clothes and a spare tire and everything opened Edited January 27, 20169 yr by mandylion7
January 27, 20169 yr i saw this already on flickr and i think it's awesome, very colorful and very cool modularity with the engine and roof types. Also all those details like the spare wheel and gearshifter are nice touches
January 27, 20169 yr It looks cute, kind of unreal, first I thought it is just digital... Great art, especially the engine!
January 27, 20169 yr Author Also all those details like the spare wheel and gearshifter are nice touches Hey thanx a bunch. Not a lot of people noticed the gearshifter/crowbar. Much appreciated.
January 27, 20169 yr Did really is an amazing build, I love it all the way!!! Excellently well done...
January 28, 20169 yr Now thats what I call smooth! Amazing use of SNOT and all kinds of angles to get the wanted shape. Really inspiring.
January 29, 20169 yr Very nice. I love all the curves and the detail of the engine. You should be proud of this model.
November 28, 20168 yr Author Thanx ofr the great comments, you people. Even though I haven't got much time I am still hoping many people see this and vote.Â
November 29, 20168 yr That's a curvy looking car.the engine looks very cool. I love all the details. This has my immediate vote
June 28, 20177 yr It looks beautiful! Such a shame it didn't make it on Ideas... Is there any way we can get instructions for it now that it isn't on Ideas?
June 28, 20177 yr Vibor, your version of Karman Ghia is very nice, but IMHO your model is more suited to scale modeling subtheme Edited June 28, 20177 yr by I_Igor Smartphone outsmarted me...but not for long

It's a beautiful build that I can see in the shops and selling well. 31 minutes ago, I_Igor said: Vibor, your version of Karman Ghia is very nice, but IMHO your model is more suited to scale modeling subtheme Agreed.

Danz, welcome to EB. Bumping 7 month old topic just to ask for a instructions is not very welcomed thing to do. You can see for yourself that builder was not active on EB for 3 months. In that case, it is better to try to find him on Ideas, Flickr etc, instead of bumping old topic. Thanks.
June 28, 20177 yr That said, this car deserves to be bumped, because it's awesome! I don't know the original/reference, but I love all the curves on it. It all flows very smooth. Clever part usage on the wheel arches. I also think this would fit great in the Scale Modeling board.

I agree, this thread deserves to be bumped, because it is a great model! I just noticed, the gearshift is a sausage, and the door handles are pistols and the exhaust is flick-fire missiles. Very creative use of parts. I realize the original poster has not been here for some time, but this model is still very clever! Andy D Edited June 30, 20177 yr by Andy D
January 3, 20187 yr Author First of all. Sorry for not being active here. I will be more active this year. Thanx all for liking my model. Yes, it didn't make it in the LEGO IDEAS although it would've been a great addition to the existing lineup of VW cars LEGO turned into models but what the heck. Andy - Gearshift is not a sausage, it's a minifig crowbarÂ
January 3, 20187 yr Vib, perhaps with this tires https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=30699&idColor=11#T=C&C=11 VW Karman Ghia would look even better Edited January 3, 20187 yr by I_Igor
