這個家伙拆開了一輛大眾甲殼蟲,創(chuàng)造了這些可愛的摩托車
The Volkswagen Beetle is one of the most memorable cars in the history of automobiles. Virtually anyone could point out the bug-shaped auto in an instant—even more so if it’s in its original vibrant orange, green, blue, or yellow colors.
大眾甲殼蟲是汽車歷史上最令人難忘的汽車之一。幾乎任何人都可以立即指出這款蟲子形狀的汽車——如果它原本是充滿活力的橙色、綠色、藍(lán)色或黃色,那就更是如此了。
It became such a classic that it is often featured in retro and modern racing games and car modders frequently take a shot at tuning it up. Unfortunately, Volkswagen announced that it is saying good-bye to the Beetle this year after over 80 years of production.
它變得如此經(jīng)典,以至于它經(jīng)常出現(xiàn)在復(fù)古和現(xiàn)代的賽車游戲中,汽車模型師經(jīng)常嘗試調(diào)整它。不幸的是,大眾汽車宣布,經(jīng)過80多年的生產(chǎn),今年將告別甲殼蟲。

That does not stop people from celebrating the legendary Volkswagen Beetle, though. Brent Walter, a maker and builder of a variety of things with whom Bored Panda got in touch, has recently taken the classic Beetle’s iconic wheel hubs and repurposed them for his custom miniature motorcycle design.
然而,這并不能阻止人們對大眾甲殼蟲的贊美。布倫特·沃爾特是一位制造和建造各種東西的人,最近他與Bored Panda取得了聯(lián)系。他把經(jīng)典甲殼蟲的標(biāo)志性輪轂重新設(shè)計成了自己定制的微型摩托車。
Walter manages the manufacturing of medical devices, while scooter-making and building other things in his home shop is just a hobby.
沃爾特管理醫(yī)療設(shè)備的制造,而在他的家庭商店里制造摩托車和制造其他東西只是一個愛好。

Walter was inspired to create the Volkspod, as he calls it, so as to test out his skills and to have an interesting trophy for car shows: “I wanted a scooter to take to VW shows. These fenders were left over from building my car. I also wanted to practice welding the thin sheet metal panels.”
沃爾特受到啟發(fā),創(chuàng)立了他所謂的人民黨(Volkspod),以測試自己的技能,并為車展準(zhǔn)備一個有趣的獎品。這些擋泥板是我造汽車時留下的。我還想練習(xí)焊接薄鋼板。”
Walter has been documenting the creation of the Volkspod since day 1 on his Instagram. The numerous posts give a detailed account of how the motorcycles were built for all the motorheads out there.
沃爾特從第一天開始就在他的Instagram上記錄人民議會的創(chuàng)立。眾多的帖子詳細(xì)描述了摩托車是如何為所有的摩托車愛好者制造的。

The Volkswagen was originally built as the “people’s car”, very appropriately hinted at by the name itself. It was supposed to be a cheap and practical car for the new roads that were popping up around Germany. The car was first designed in the early to mid-1930s and available in 1938, but wasn’t a commercial hit until the end of the 1940s.
大眾汽車最初是作為“人民的汽車”制造的,這個名字本身就很好地暗示了這一點。它應(yīng)該是一種便宜而實用的汽車,用于德國各地出現(xiàn)的新道路。該車最初設(shè)計于20世紀(jì)30年代初至中期,1938年上市,但直到40年代末才在商業(yè)上大獲成功。
