Tow Truck XL

[Boxerlego]

Congratulations on the Hall of Fame! This tow truck is certainly amazing!

Well today I finally got around to sort all the 4200 parts so I could start the build.

Took some time but now it's done so let's build!

@Therion: does the chassis flex from weight? While I like your photos I am curious if that is just an illusion or if the physical weight does actually cause the chassis to sag in the middle.

Yes the chassis does flex a bit under the weight of the model. It's one of the few things that I personally don't like about my towtruck. But then if it would be perfect I wouldn't have any reason to keep on building .

[Lundgren]

Please Dikkie keep on building these awesome creations of yours!!!

No wonder that it'll flex a little, it's huge! :)

[Lundgren]

It's all about the hoses and cables right now! :D

[Lundgren]

Damn it was tight with the pneu' hoses! But I think I managed to get it done!

Looking great! I can only imagine how much fun it must be to build a model like this! In the future - when I get rich - I really want to buy all the parts for one of these truly excuisite model team/technic hybrid MOCs and build for display!

[Lundgren]

Well i must say it's extremely satisfying to build these amazing creations of Klijn, Spijkhoven, Longer and so on!

I only wish they all will continoue to make these wonderful creations so us mortals will be able to own them to!

[Lundgren]

Today I finally finished it!

But unfortunately when i rotate the crane arm CCW it cracks some gears! :( (CW works just fine) will have to sort it out tomorrow.

I think you're missing something

What a wicked Build !

Definitely would like a build like this in the future as a centrepiece amongst my collection :)

I followed this topic the last days, and the longer I see this amazing and excellent model, more I want to build it. But first I'll have to make same Bricklinking I've only a few blue parts. Or I should it build in black or red.

Greetings
