[TC18] The Grand '33

[MP LEGO Technic creations]

I have added some "filling to the sides", improved the rear bumper and reworked some other parts of the car.

The front grid is now "chrome" (from 42083 Chiron set).

I keep coming back to this entry. It's just so lovely!

And it's seems you've increased realism by getting it extra dusty...

I like curves of this roadster. I also like the style of your color pictures - they have so vivid colors and parts look like they are chromed.

It's coming off great! Only needs a hood.

Yes, hood and front grill and it's finished.

That's so amazing. So much stuff packed inside a little package.

As other said before, beautiful lines all around! That steering mechanism is very nice and compact, I will have to remember that one.

Very stylish, I like it a lot! 

Both the steering and the drivetrain are as genious as simple they are.

Thanks! I wanted to steer without any gears. So that's the solution. No gears, no problems.

Really thank you. In this small size you need to build simple mechanisms (Too many gears make a wobbly effect and if you overengineer it, there could be a terrible noise while driving, it could get stuck an lot of another).

I'm not a big fan of the front bumper nor the stance of the radiator and I liked the all orange theme better. But I love the lines, the steering and transmission. Simple yet realistic. Very elegant. 

Great model altogether!

Yes, the front bumper was quite difficult to create (it was too long so the wheels couldn't turn or it was too short and it didn't look very well) I had to find the correct shape, lenght and place.
