Just working further on the details, I got some scale-looking aluminum rod-ends, SS tubes and SS threaded rods.

I saw this bug in Dirt Sports "Masterpiece in Metal" and was instantly drawn to it. My first car was a 67 VW and have loved them for ever. I simply love this rig. I do have a few questions. I'm collecting parts for a KOH style Jeep and would like to know some measurements. The wheelbase, chassis length & width. I'm going to be using 1.9 Rok Lox as well and love the overall scale size. Thanks in advance

Overall Length 16 1/2"
Track Width 8 1/2"
Wheelbase 10 3/4"


Here's a quick comparison for easy visualization:

Are you sure the chassis is 8.5" and not the track width. I'm looking for outside "door to door"

And thanks for the quick response

Sincerest Gratitude to W.Pa.C. for nominating the Rock Bug - RC of the Month. W.Pa.C. Guys Totally ROCK

There was a suggestion at Pirate4x4 for a driver that had a beard. I was hoping that this would do ...

Also mocked-up a rear view mirror and side mirrors.

Again, apologies for the rough finish, will get some better outdoor pictures after I get the driver done.

Thanks for all your interest and kind support!
