Volkswagen Beetle

I hate being so many time zones away from most of you guys, since i have to wait for ages for a reply, or just can't join a forum conversation mostly :mad::)

That is some pretty nice work there. Wonder how much heavier it is than a standard VW.

.....absolutely fantastic iron work.......would suck in a blizzard though..

that nice i would hope there in a very warm place

Great work! I wonder how many hours (days) he has in it? Just amazing.....

Very nice work. I wonder if the car is still around somewhere.

I saw a video of this car somewhere back in the early nineties so i'ts been a while since it was made.

Yeah. But that "Bug" is real craftsmanship!! Man, I wouldn't begin to even know where to start a project like that.

Great work! I wonder how many hours (days) he has in it? Just amazing.....

Apparently it has around 2800 hours put into it.
You can order one made for you if you want, but i guess its not going to be cheap
I think they made some for some sheik from the UAE, just with different design, something arabic.
Oh, and the sheik wouldn't have problems with rain and wind i guess .P
On the other hand, sand isn't quite fun, is it? :)

It's more of a fabrication job than forgework; most of the decorative stuff looks like cold bent bought-in elements. It's still a stunning piece of work though.
