Lox Lego Posted January 7, 2018 (edited) After a grueling 10 hour dual build with my Brother Dugald, we have successfully completed a proper C-Model for the 42077 Lego Rally car. The car can have all the motors easily removed and an HOG steering can been added for a proper C-model. We managed to create completely new suspension, most notably the front suspension tuned in by none other that @DugaldIC with Ackerman steering :) This video was filmed with a Buwizz 2.0, 1 M-motor for drive that powers boxer V6 and servo. This build uses 100% of the parts from the rally car. (with option of adding or removing motors) Rebrickable: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-12233/Loxlego/1970-porsche-can-am-42077-rally-car-c-model/#parts 1970 Porsche Can Am by lachlan cameron, on Flickr 1970 Porsche Can Am by lachlan cameron, on Flickr 1970 Porsche Can Am by lachlan cameron, on Flickr 1970 Porsche Can Am by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Inspiration: 1970 Porsche Can Am - inspiration by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Edited January 14, 2018 by Lox Lego Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Johnny1360 Posted January 7, 2018 I really like what you've done here, the color scheme could be better but after all it is a C model. For those complaining about the openness of the models fender wells, they should check out that car you used for inspiration. Boy race cars sure have come a long ways since then.

Jurss Posted January 7, 2018 This would be good, even if it won't be Cmodel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1gor Posted January 7, 2018 Very nice C model, it resembles original lines very well and you added important details like air coolin vents over boxer engine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

neepheid Posted January 7, 2018 I've just finished building the main model of this and was about to do the buggy but I'd love to build this model! Using all the parts from the main set is very impressive also. Great work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It turns out the rally car set had more odd number of parts than anything I’ve seen before! 7 hours ago, Jurss said: This would be good, even if it won't be Cmodel. Thanks @Jurss ? i would love to put this thing together again with proper panels to suit the real car. 4 hours ago, I_Igor said: Very nice C model, it resembles original lines very well and you added important details like air coolin vents over boxer engine Yes, that was @DugaldICs idea ? 4 hours ago, schraubedrin said: Man, this model makes me want to buy 42077.

Vectormatic Posted January 7, 2018 i love that! the pics look better then the a or b models! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kbalage Posted January 7, 2018 Great lines, very clever use of all the parts! My favorite is the placement of the mudguard panel :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leonardo da Bricki Posted January 7, 2018 If I get this set, your C-model will be my A-model! Love the design, especially the use of all the parts. Mudguard is perfect in the front like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KD123 Posted January 8, 2018 ExCellent build! The Rally car looks to be a great set for the variety of panels included. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a great set but as @Lox Lego mentioned it's a very odd set for both colours and singular pieces but I think if it was redone in in solid colours it would be better.

Lox Lego Posted January 14, 2018 Hey all! I've finished the instructions for the 1970 Porsche Can Am. They're avail. on rebrickable: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-12233/Loxlego/1970-porsche-can-am-42077-rally-car-c-model/#parts 1970 Porsche Can Am - Low rider by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DugaldIC Posted January 15, 2018 (edited) I rebuilt it to check the instructions but I also wanted to redo the colour scheme for the golf livery in a proper blue white and orange. I also added a functioning steering wheel. This is an awesome little build and super fun to play with. And how could I pass up a few pictures with its little 911 brothers!

Vectormatic Posted March 23, 2018 I figured i should drop by and mention i just bought the instructions, they look awesome, and a lot of work must have gone into making them! Dont actually have the set yet, but i figured i should have the instructions ready to go for when my resolve finally breaks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
