Custom Volkswagen Trike - By Balazs Borbely


Here's one last photo of Balazs Borbely's custom VW Trike. The model used for a starting point was a Brekina Volkswagen Beetle. The front end was scratchbuilt from styrene and brass rods. The front wheel are made from wristwatch gear, aluminum and styrene tubes. The rear wheels are from a Ricko Ford Mustang. The diamond thread plate floorboard is from Plano Models. Figures are from Preiser, background accessories (tool cabinets, toolboxes, parts, and wall plaques) are all from Pitstop87. You can see more of Balazs' models in his Fotki photo album. Previously featured in Photo Galleries 586 & 587.
