Beach Buggy

I was looking all over the net for a beach buggy paper model, couldn't find any, so i decide to try and build my own one.
Easier said than done ! Every time I end with a disaster so I decide to start at a point,
Floor plan - Beach buggy's models are build on a beetle floor pan
Si I will start from there
Draw up a plan for the sides L/h & r/h, the bonnet at least I got now an idea how to start from the bottom

The T Top of the model did not look too good to me so I decide to make it a bit longer, it looked too short to me
