7994 Container Truck Redux

[andythenorth]

The container truck in the 7994 Harbour (big blue boat edition) was not the highlight of the set. Not terrible, but not great. I had a go at improving it.

Not the most earth-shattering MOC ever, but I like to do simple tweaks. Highlights include:

- third cab step

- doors

- better mirrors

- twistlock mounts for containers (container lengths match yellow cargo train)

- fuel tanks

- tow hitch (might build a trailer)

Pictures aided in places by two toddlers. Bit grainy, sorry.

That's a good set of improvements to the original - although I think it's kind of missing those additional 1 x 2 grilles on the front.

Yours definitely looks more substantial, it would fit really well in my city....
