While digging through the swap boxes, I found a cheap ass Jitterbug clone, you know the ones, they populate every dump bin from time to time. This one was imported by Frogley Agencies, but it does have an endorsement by Harro on the back of the packet, so must be better than some...right Confused

Unscrewed the bib and removed the alloy tow bridle, used the original body to get a pattern for the front face of my Creek Creature Walker body. Grabbed a long screw eye and cup for the tail and a twist eye for the belly.

A quick cut and sand for the face profile, a touch of the burr on the dremel to dish the face, drill a couple of holes for the mount screws and hook eyes.

will give it a lick of paint and hook it up for a test swim, will update then.
