rumpletump Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 Hi Guys, I have been working on a new project since the tsats challenge. So now I'm finished and I will be uploading pics and video soon.. However.. I thought since I'm still pretty new to these parts and moc-ing and a lot of people haven't heard that much about me yet I would start with a little teaser pic.. To create a bit of interest & speculation on what I might have been up to. So here is a little clue, Feel free to have a guess and all will be revealed in a day or two.. Henry Quote
Paul Boratko Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 I assume that it will have 4 wheels and a V8 engine... Quote
gotoAndLego Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 (edited) here is a little clue, Feel free to have a guess and all will be revealed in a day or two.. Henry So you're making a MOC of you cleaning up your room? Edited June 6, 2012 by gotoAndLego Quote
dhc6twinotter Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 Those look like parts from the 8070 super car, so my guess is that you are building some sort of super car. Quote
sama Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 Either it has something to do with 8070 or it has something to do with megabloks, I don't know? Quote
yotogi Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 I look forward to seeing what you make with just THAT selection of parts. Quote
rumpletump Posted June 6, 2012 Author Posted June 6, 2012 I look forward to seeing what you make with just THAT selection of parts. Haha well that is a problem.. Those are the parts I didn't use Either it has something to do with 8070 or it has something to do with megabloks, I don't know? It has plenty to do with 8070.. I assume that it will have 4 wheels and a V8 engine... Yes it will.. Here's a safe guess -- it's There is just no fooling some people Quote
rumpletump Posted June 8, 2012 Author Posted June 8, 2012 Ok so as promised I made you guess.. and now I can reveal my work. I made this jeep using only Technic set 8070. My aim was to create an alternate or C model for the set. This Moc uses 95% of the parts from the set. I'm not sure what percentage of total parts a true alternate would use but I think its pretty good. This model features, Independent suspension to all 4 wheels. HOG steering external control from back Mechanically opening Doors external control on side Mechanically opening bonnet/hood internal control in cab Motorized V8 engine Working motorized 4 speed gearbox ratio: 1 = 1:5, 2 = 1:3, 3 = 3:5 4 = 1:1 This model will drive on the floor quite well in 1st gear. Plus there is a slip gear in the gearbox on 1st and 2nd which helps on rough terrain. All the pics are on my moc pages. my moc pages I'm not sure how to get them on here without making them tiny If someone can help me .. There will be a video next week.. I hope... I have started work on it ENJOY! HENRY Quote
88high Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 the styling is super! but independent suspension doesnt belong on a jeep... however, it is all you had to work with, so i guess its great in this case... Quote

Thanks.. I think.. I call it a super jeep a bit more sporty like a supercar a bit off less off roady than a jeep.. Maybe that will help me to get away with it Quote
