Wing commander

The Scorcher spend the last days at the paintshop do get some minor scratches touched up. Now it is back at the BUG BOX and we are working on it again. Some already noticed the limited space beteween the rear wings and the tires in the area close to the running board. We noticed that as well, but didn't want to do anything against it before the Toy Fair. Now, as the Volksworld Show is coming up next, we want to make everything fit. Therefor we ordered a pair of 10 centimeter inner widened fibre glass wings from CSP. Out of these fenders we cook up our own Scorcher wings.

No Robert, you can't fit the tire with that fender on. Walter wonders already where and how we cut the fenders.

Walter aka "Tship Fus" skillful draws the new lines. If this is going to look good? We are sceptical.

With the wing roughly cut off the tire and wheel combo can get back on to the car. Now we can finalize the new lines even better. Well, we will see how the work progresses in the following days and if the idea with the Beetle wings is really less labor-intensive than modifying Baja fenders.
