This Bond Bug model has been produced at 1/16th scale and has a hinging canopy. A separate chassis has been modelled which can be glued to the body or left so the body can be removed for display purposes.

The model could be scaled but reducing the scale would require a 0.2mm printer nozzle. My model shown in the pictures was constructed using my Bambu lab P1P printer with a 0.4mm nozzle.

you will require some appropriate glue to construct the model and some thin clear plastic sheet for the windows. i have produced some templates to cut the plastic sheet which is held in with a glued window frame.

I have produced an engine and gearbox and I may add this later with a more detailed chassis. This is best printed at a much larger scale such as 1/8th scale.

i have also modelled some alternative body arrangements which fit on a Rialto chassis. I will add these in the future as well.

i haven't produced any instructions yet because this will take considerable time and I much prefer modelling parts than writing instructions. If anybody is struggle to built the model leave me a message. The model is relatively simple to build but it might help to look at some pictures of the rear car.

I haven't yet produced any decals for bug which are quite distinctive and would set off the model really well. 

Separate chassis models will be added very soon as a separate model.

Note individual files need to be scaled. 6.25% is 1/16th scale.
