HIGHWAY PATROL Posted February 13, 2012 V-LV-60A to V-LV-60C, V-LF-9A & V-LF-9B, and V-LP-9B & V-LP-9C Here is my serie off pick up trucks. There all based on the same base. But i couldn't stop with one . Sorry for the blurry telephone quality photo's This is the base off the pick up, where it al started with. Here is the base with a utility back on it. This is my snow plow with salt hopper. My ambulance. My dog squad. It has two seperate cages for the dogs. My S.W.A.T. team. My tow truck. And these i have already posted in an other post, but they are also based on the same pick up. So i wil post them again. My fire brigade utility trucks, and ambulance. I hope you like them.

lightningtiger Posted February 13, 2012 Excellent work 'HIGHWAY PATROL', the first one could have also passed as a fire fighting vehicle too (reminds me a little of Squad 51). They all are great vehicles, the straight pick-ups and the 4x4's too ! Keep them coming 'HIGHWAY PATROL' and Brick On Truck On ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Henchmen4Hire Posted February 14, 2012 That's funny how the world works, I was doing some research into trucks (I haven't built one yet) and was reading about how they have bases like this that are modified for many different jobs. Now here you are posting great examples Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickBox Posted February 14, 2012 Those are some cool Pick-ups, the snow plow is my favourite. I have to admit, though, that I find the front mudguards to be a bit too high, especially at the first and the third fire truck it looks somehow odd to me. Has the real vehicle actually the same feature? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ER0L Posted February 14, 2012 Here is my serie off pick up trucks. There all based on the same base. Now this is really awesome stuff - why build each new MOC from scratch when there is already a functional and goodlooking base you can use? I had a similar idea with my 7 wide cars which use exactly the same wheelbase. The pick-up trucks themselves are designed very well, too, they look sturdy and nice! I must say I am not so fond of combining those wheels with those mudguards since they have quite the same diameter. How about the new mudguards? I think they would fit very well here. Anyway a very convincing system you have developed, I like it very much! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capn Frank Posted February 14, 2012 These are a lot of great trucks! I am looking forward to indexing these. My only comment for the trucks with the larger tires in the front is for them to use the new mud guards, so that the tires can be closer to the mud guards and the truck still looks very close to the original version: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_bIG_fM_ Posted February 14, 2012 The snowplow ist just great! Well done! But i must agree with Phred, with the new mudguards they would look much better... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HIGHWAY PATROL Posted February 14, 2012 Thanks for all the tumbs up. And the new mudguards are maybe better. The only problem is that i don't have them yet. Maybe i order some to change the pick ups. I myself had the same problem with the mudguards i used now . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
