[MOC] Orange Pumpkin

[Oliver 79]

Hello brickers.

I would like to show you this creation that has been sat under my desk for about a year. I need the pieces, so I thought I'd take a few shots before I take it apart!

It's a pretty standard truck. Loosely based on a 1950's style Ford. It has the usual functions: suspension, 4 wheel steering, opening doors and hood.

There's not much else to say about it, so without further ado, some pictures!  

Thanks for looking!

Very nice. Looks like something from a disney cartoon (and I mean that in good way).

What a tidy build! If this was a set I'd buy it 

Does 42056 Porsche contain all the orange parts needed for this?

Nice! 
Lunchbox or Wild Willy next?

Thanks. The Porsche would contain a few. The Corvette is a better choice as it has the wheel arches.

I've been thinking about the Grave Digger!

Thanks (I think! )

What I should have said is it looks like a vehicle from the animated movie Cars. It has a happy look about it and I could see it appealing to younger technic fans.
