TheKingOfBuilding Posted January 30, 2012 V-LV-56A Hello and today, I will be showing my Chevrolet Impala NASCAR. As with most of my car models, it seats one minifigure and took around one night to build. In this shot you can see the size of the Impala, along with the multiple stickered pieces from the Tiny Turbos set 8125 Thunder Raceway for the sponsers of a real NASCAR. One of the only parts of the car i'm not totally happy with is the front windscreen - I might cover the bottom part with some white tape to give it "lower" look. The alternate views show the shape of the car and the sign (also from 8125) attached to the roof to create the racing number. Another minor problem is the 1x1 wedge sized gap near the rear wheel arch, which unless Lego invent a reverse cheese wedge ( ) is not really possible to fix. I hope you liked my Chevrolet Impala NASCAR and comments or sugestions for improvement are more than welcome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LEGO Guy Bri Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) Awesome NASCAR 'TKOB'! The stickers really give it that necessary touch. Great idea for the orientation of the windscreens too. Do you plan on building more to go with this? Keep up the great builds  <img src="http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/default_classic.gif"> Edited January 30, 2012 by Leg Godt Gud Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henchmen4Hire Posted January 31, 2012 Can you add a 1x1 round plate in the hole behind the wheel? I like that rear window, neat idea Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheKingOfBuilding Posted January 31, 2012 Thanks for all of the great feedback everyone! Do you plan on building more to go with this? If time and my wallet allow it, I might make 42 other NASACARs to go with it so I can have a proper race Can you add a 1x1 round plate in the hole behind the wheel? I've now tried it and it really covers up a huge portion of the gap, thank you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
