Default Re: VW bay-window transporter

Sometimes an idea comes up in conversation



If anybody followed along with this, a guy might have some stock Dickie hard plastic wheels sitting around after doing the swap for Italeri semi-trailer tires. Eventually ya wonder what can ya do with them?



I'm just using a magnet on this, but if you pop off the vw logo it's got a perfect location hole for permanent tire mount.

If we hang a tire off the nose, it's usually to free up some interior space for something. So might as well yank the middle seat and start on making a galley.



Doesn't look too bad in there, even with leaving the full back seat so we'll say it's a Kombi and not a full time Camper.



This might work. Although it would quickly turn a van build into a 'dollhouse truck'
