Bond Bug finished!


Recommended Posts

There’s a fine line between dorky and quirky, between ridiculous and sublime. Sure, you can be all avant-garde and get away with it sometimes, but not always. Sometimes, a car is just so polarizing that it inevitably falls afoul of even the most ardent automotive non-conformist.

 

One such car was the Bond Bug, an outlandishly over-the-top take on the three-wheeler car concept that was so prevalent in post-war Britain. Shaped like a chunk of frozen Velveeta and coloured a similarly lurid orange, the Bug definitely turned as many stomachs as heads.

 

Well, now my own personal auto museum has one of these little blighters to proudly fill out its ranks! Check out my finished Airfix Classic Reissue Bond Bug at the link below, and let me know if you think time has been a mitigating factor, or if this this is still as whacked-out as it was when it was first issued!
