1920's Moon Motor Car

[Murdoch17]

This car was made from my original Rolls Royce Mark II, but I decided to go all little closer to my hometown with my updated version. It's now been based off of the 1905 -1930 automobile maker, Moon Motor Car. It was based in St. Louis, Missouri and it had it's peak year in 1925, with production of 10,271 vehicles. (Here is link to Wikipedia with more information: Moon Motor Car link) Anyway, after deciding what to name it, I reworked it to include a rear spare tire and tailights, while fixing the front bumper to make it stronger. Also, thanks to Superkalle's wonderful program, LDD Manager, (link here for the topic) a tool which alows you to see parts you need to build it in Real life. I used this tool top make my car in 14 colors, some with stripes and diffrent colored wheels. ALL of them are buildable in real life.

And now, the long awaited model pictures:

All the cars in order left to right:

BACK ROW: Tan w/ black stripe, solid Blue, solid Green, solid Yellow, Black w/ light bluish gray stripe, Solid Orange, solid Reddish-Brown.

FRONT ROW: Sand green w/ black stripe, solid Dark Bluish Gray, solid Red, solid Light Bluish Gray, Dark Blue w/ black stripe, Solid Dark Red, White w/ black stripe.

The same cars from above.

This Sand Green colored car was made for the Monster Fighters zombie driver, Renfield. It could also go with the zombie Bride & Groom.

side view of the Sand Green Monster Machine, as I like to call it.

Rear view, with the tailights and spare tire. The rear lights were hard to come up with, believe it or not, becuase I wanted to have them stand on the rear bumper. Oh well. It looks better this way, don't you think?

The don't-run-me-over view shows the two clips i used to help the bumper become stronger. don't ask me why I didn't put flat 1x1's there, as I don't know...

The LXF is below:

Moon Motor Car in 14 colors

NOTE: Twenty-eight 1x2 axels are included in this model for building it in real life. You need two per automobile to make sure the rear two arches don't fall out. Slide the 1x2's into the hole where the arches meet, and this make sure it says stable. other than this, the model is ready to be played with / used in a MOC / whatever else you can think off!

Comments / questions / critics welcome!

I love the design of these. I love how you made them in so many colors too.

I'll definitely need to make a brick built one of my own if you don't mind.
