Awesome. I’m curious though, what do you suppose it weighs?

That’s a fine art/craftsmanship! I hope that it will live long. You can waterproof it with water & pva (polyvinyl acetate). Epoxy & paint is optional.
Step 1: mix 2 parts water & 1 part pva. Paint the car with it. Let it dry and repeat once.
Step 2: mix 1 part water & 2 parts pva. Paint the car with it. Let it dry and repeat once.
(It will now have a plastic finish look)
Step 3: apply epoxy resin (adhesive+hardener) and smooth it by sanding.
Step 4: paint it and let it dry.
(You can skip Steps 3 & 4 if you want them to know that its made of cardboard.)

I had to make a 3d cardboard model in my first year of art college. I made scissors, doesn’t compare to this project. Looks like fun.
