was about to say the same, but otherwise they look pretty darn nice n accurate in the form, although the early ones had round raillights didn't they?

Hi
They look nice. I wonder if anyone will ever do a replica bug body, they do Ghia ones.

Here is their website http://speed356.tripod.com/classicars/
I love the 356 but am only really a huge fan of the coupe....since I was a teenager.
Speedster replicas are pretty common as a kit car and have been looking for a replica coupe for ages.
Would be fantastic if we could buy a mould from them and make our own bodies in australia....and will post on as many forums as I can to hopefully get
some interest....
There is a beetle body that has been done for years in the states. Not original style though - it's chopped and split windowed.
