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.

大众甲壳虫是汽车历史上最令人难忘的汽车之一。几乎任何人都可以立即指出这款虫子形状的汽车——如果它原本是充满活力的橙色、绿色、蓝色或黄色，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.

它变得如此经典，以至于它经常出现在复古和现代的赛车游戏中，汽车模型师经常尝试调整它。不幸的是，大众汽车宣布，经过80多年的生产，今年将告别甲壳虫。

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，这并不能阻止人们对大众甲壳虫的赞美。布伦特·沃尔特是一位制造和建造各种东西的人，最近他与Bored Panda取得了联系。他把经典甲壳虫的标志性轮毂重新设计成了自己定制的微型摩托车。

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.”

沃尔特受到启发，创立了他所谓的人民党(Volkspod)，以测试自己的技能，并为车展准备一个有趣的奖品。这些挡泥板是我造汽车时留下的。我还想练习焊接薄钢板。”

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.

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.

大众汽车最初是作为“人民的汽车”制造的，这个名字本身就很好地暗示了这一点。它应该是一种便宜而实用的汽车，用于德国各地出现的新道路。该车最初设计于20世纪30年代初至中期，1938年上市，但直到40年代末才在商业上大获成功。
