That's just it. It wasn't that hard to disassemble. Any kid that knows which end of the screwdriver to hit with a hammer could do it!
Well, the Bug is very nearly complete. Just a few details left. Lia, seems impressed anyway.

Re: Bargain Mini Finds On eBay!
Thanks guys! I started this project because I sorely miss working on and customizing the real thing. I'm just not physically able to do that anymore, so I thought this might be a way for me to continue doing something I love. In a way, it's even better since I can get my dolls involved. See? I think Lia and Juju are just as anxious to see this thing finished as I am....

Well, stick a fork in it, it's done!
Without further ado, I give you the New Love Bug!
This might be a Barbie car, but 8 inch Elvez looks pretty good beside it.
Here's a little before and after.

Thanks, gogo! Be a while before I put it on the road. Need to give that paint job time to fully harden. Meanwhile, got some other projects in the works. Stay tuned!

Thanks. I'm partial to the original 1969 film myself. Saw that at the theater when it first came out.
