Inspired by the VW T3 from @je_brickworks and the T1 from @1saacbricks and of course inspired by our own VW T3 Vanagon I tried to build a VW Bulli by myself. Although I usually do not show WIPs, this is just a first version that definitely needs some further work. For example I'm not really satisfied with the wheels and the grill. And the car still has got an open back, so no pics from behind at the moment ;)
At the first look, the VW T3 bus seems like a simple block, but meeting the real proportions in this scale is harder than it seems ;)
The Bulli is 7 studs wide (to fit the 6 studs windscreen while angle the side windows to come as close to the original as possible) and built only with original LEGO parts - no cutting, no glue, no custom parts.
