Description
FRANZIS VW BEETLE 4-CYLINDER BOXER ENGINE
The VW Type 1, the "Beetle" as it is affectionately called until today, is one of the most successful automobiles worldwide. It crawled off the assembly line over 21 million times between 1938 and 2003. And it still has its fans all over the planet.
The car was driven by an air-cooled 4-cylinder boxer engine which has been continuously developed and modified over the years. The detailed, transparent functional model of the engine version of the legendary "Pretzel Beetle" (so named after the distinctive, divided small rear window pane), from the production years 1949 - 1953, you can now assemble it yourself thanks to FRANZIS in scale 1:4.
Experience technical fun for you and your whole family with this kit from FRANZIS! Build your Beetle engine in about 3 hours from 200 parts and following detailed instructions. A lot of things will move like the big example: crankshaft, pistons, valves. Included is also a sound module, which brings the typical boxer sound across well.

See-through engine models
The FRANZIS engine kits are wonderful to look at, and are designed for anyone who wants to understand and explain the technology of reciprocating internal combustion engines. The detailed replicas of classic engine concepts offer full visibility thanks to the transparent plastic housing. The crankshaft and camshaft, pistons and connecting rods as well as the entire valve train of the functional models are movable just like the original. Even the ignition sparks are simulated with LEDs. As with the models used as an example, the individual parts of the FRANZIS model engines are screwed or plugged together. The accompanying book with detailed building instructions helps and provides a lot of interesting background information.
