HL2:EP2 Beta Jalopy for Simfphys

In 2006, Valve released trailers and footage of their then-in-development Half-Life 2 Standalone Expansion, Half-Life 2: Episode Two. And in many pieces of media, you could see a rusty, broken-down, barely working Volkswagen Beetle-esque Jalopy that was completely different than what we got in the final game. What we ended up getting was a
Dodge Charger-esque muscle car that didn't look as broken down. It turns out that the texture sheet of the Beta Jalopy can be located within the final game's files, but the model was nowhere to be found (it is often speculated that it was deleted). A lot of people have tried to recreate the Beta Jalopy with their own custom model, but none did so well (like this one). However, online user TheMattyZero (AKA Proj3ct_ZeRo) had fully recreated the model, with the only exception that the physics models weren't finished (jiggling parts and spinning fan). He has since given up on 100% completing it and the files were released to the public. My partner, Matsilagi had added onto it by porting the vehicle model to Garry's Mod and successfully mounted it to the Simfphys Lua Vehicles base, and it was released onto the Valve Cut Content Discord Server. Unfortunately, it was never released to the Workshop, so with his permission, I have finally uploaded it for any and all GMod players to enjoy.

UPDATE: After several years, Matsilagi has now updated the model to have proper animations just like VERM's remake!
