Year 2020 was crazy for me. It was mainly related to the number of models that I published as well as other block-like activities. To help relieve stress, I decided to rebuild the 42123 set that fell into my hands before Christmas.

Assembling an alternative model from a smaller set is a very interesting experience. Flashbacks from my childhood turned on when a man had two sets and was trying to put something nice out of it. Creativity above all else. 

The set itself has 830 elements, so quite a lot. HOT ROD was chosen for a prosaic reason. When I disassembled the A model, I was left with a dummy V8 engine and started to build with it. This is how a model with 560 elements was created.

Please watch a short video and some official photos. There is also an instruction made by @M_longer.

Nice B model with good use of parts.

I don't know if it is part limitations, but somehow roof seems too high for hotrod.

Looks nice, but as @Jurss said roof is to high and I think wheelbase is to long (if Ford model A is a reference)
