Terrasher Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 I instantly fell in love with the new Speed Champions, 8-wide Ferrari. It soon became the first Speed Champions set I had ever bought, and I decided to put it in my modular city layout. The car looked incredible, but way too big next to the other 6-wide vehicles in my city. So I got the idea to begin "upgrading" my 6-wide vehicles into 8-wide, starting with 60150 Pizza Van. The result ended up looking much different from 60150 than I had intended, but also much better: I gave the van a much more traditional, angular food truck look, which I think fits a lot better with the modular buildings. The inside features pizza ovens, a small countertop, a microwave, some storage space, a fridge in the back, and an air vent. Turns out extra Speed Champions wheel rims make great fans! Thanks to the stickers from 60150 and those from the Xtra stickr sheet, I managed to decorate the exterior of the food truck with City Pizza logos. There's also a door in the back! And, of course, two minifigures fit side to side in the driver and passenger seats. Now we're ready to sell some pizzas! Quote
nwbricks Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 Wow - looks totally different, but I love the old school look of the front! And the air vent on the side is a neat touch. Does the awning fold away? Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 Very nice ...I like the menu on the side of the van! Quote

Since I just keep it displayed next to my modulars, I figured I'd keep it always open. Happy you like the older look, I feel like it's the more typical aesthetic for food trucks. Quote
imvanya Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 I bet it would look nice next to an un-monster-trucked 31104 Monster Burger Truck: Quote
The Island Chronicles Posted February 6, 2020 Posted February 6, 2020 Whoa! That looks outstanding. It's way different but better. Quote
Merlict Posted February 11, 2020 Posted February 11, 2020 Nice interior, could probably do with the next size up of wheels though. Quote
