[Moc] 6641 - 4 Wheelin Truck 21st century remake :)

[Jonsson]

Hi there! This is my first post in the Town section, I have posted some creations (motorcycles) over in the Model Team/ Technic forum but this is unexplored territory.. :)

As I child in the 80:s one of my absolute favourites was the 4- Wheelin Truck - it sat in box assembled even in my dark ages.

One day I found it, and also found out when I stumbled upon the instructions that I had modified to my liking at the age of say 8-9 years.

This is what it looked like then, and still do today:

Now as and AFOL - I wanted to tribute this awesome model from Lego with and updated version of - what it maybe could have looked if released today.

I give you the 4-Wheelin truck of the 21st century - complete with a V6 - turbocharged engine, hidden [due to the lack of space] intercooler and detailed intake system.. ;)

Hope you like it!

And some comparison shots of them together:

Cheers!

Now, this is a cool truck! I like the engine detail. The little one is good, too.

That's a sweet looking ride Jonsson with some great upgrades!

I like the use of the Technic pieces for the light bar on the front.

I really like this! Something very similar has been on my to do-list for a long time, and your version is great. I don't want to study it too closely, though, because I'd like mine to be something more than a copy of yours - but even just a copy would go perfectly with my updated classics. Well built :)
