VW Scirocco I - honestly a breathtaking silver Teuton

A little stopmotion clip of my favorite plastic guy assembling the AMT plastic kit of a Volkswagen Scirocco I in the scale 1/24. I worked on the model for a good friend of mine who uses it as a gift for his wife. Here's the story:

The old fellow said his wife had discovered a meeting of Scirocco drivers in the marketplace one day and suddenly went mad with joy: "Sciroccos! Look, sweetheart, all full of Sciroccos! The Scirocco!!! The coolest car in German history!". She always wanted to drive such a car, but never owned one. And meanwhile Sciroccos were already vintage and barely to get. The old fellow thought, well, my little angel, you will get such a vehicle! He knew a model maker who had a reputation for not being talent-free enough to accomplish such a thing. The modeler went to work and ordered his assistant what to do: "Build a Scirocco car just like it was built in 1977, paint it beautifully in silver and don´t forget to write the right words on the license plate: Just write LITTLE ANGEL on it, so that there will be no doubt that no one but the beloved lady may call this car his own!"
