MariusL Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 Good evening everybody! It’s a high-mobility truck with the typical body of rally assistance trucks. With wide opening side panels and a workshop on the right hand side … ... and enough place for spare parts and anything else you need in the outback ;-) I used the 2x4 tiles on the side panel because of stability reasons. The colours themselvs shall symbolize the usually colourful advertisements on rally trucks on the one hand, and on the other hand they are a tribute to the colourful toy LEGO! Trailer for the rally buggy Trailer for the Truck-Trial truck: The rally team: Paddock: While the drivers rest and enjoy a cool drink the mechanics started to repair the damages of the day. The rally assistance and the Truck-Trial truck with their colleagues of everyday life: Regards, Mario Quote
Nemo57 Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 Bright, detailed, with knowledge of the case. I love. Quote
deraven Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 Love the interior with room for all those tools and support equipment. Nice! Quote
THERIZE Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 That thing is cool! Very detailed with all those tools, trailers, exo cage and suspension! I love it! Quote
Imanol BB Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 nice vehicles, i really like thems and the suspension is the best thing of thems, have you tried to use rubber parts to have a fully working suspension? Quote
MariusL Posted September 9, 2015 Author Posted September 9, 2015 Thanks to all for comments! I like trucks and I like mobile, self-sustaining vehicles and units - like this "mobile workshop" ;-) @ Imanolbb: No, I haven't tested rubber elements. My main goal was just to build a chassis which is able to ride over the most rough terrain in my children's room ;-) Kind regards Mario Quote
Imanol BB Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 well, you have made a nice work doing that, i hope that the people in lego town start to make more functional vehicles, with suspension, and vehicles like this model are exactly what i want, keep making those amzing trucks. Quote
Nemo57 Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 (edited) And how to construct suspension? My son built here is a vehicle with swinging pieces of Lego. Such details have not. Edited September 10, 2015 by Nemo57 Quote
Imanol BB Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 amazing vehicle, i also made some topics of my suspension ideas for town vehicles, sadly, looks like almost no one likes the vehicles, http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=113954&hl=%2Bmercedes+%2Bbenz and http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=113367&hl=roading , and in case you want the instructions of some of them: http://ldd.us.lego.com/en-us/gallery?memberid=imanolberecibar Quote
Nemo57 Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 We must ask the author to show the design of suspension. Quote
TheBear Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 This would make a really great set! Quote
MariusL Posted September 10, 2015 Author Posted September 10, 2015 Hello ImanolBB! Yes, I miss this kind of Vehicles in the portfolio of TLC – so I’ve to build them by myself and I’m sure to continue ;-) It’s not my scale (I just build 6-wide cabs) but your trucks look really GOOD on LDD! Have you built some of them? If yes, please post photos. Kind regards Mario Quote
MariusL Posted September 10, 2015 Author Posted September 10, 2015 Hello Nemo57! I like this parts your son used for the axles of the vehicle on your photo. I used this spring wheels holder (BL name – it took me a while to find it) for the buggy and the blue van of the rally team. I’ll post some photos of the suspension – hopefully I find some time in the evening. Kind regards Mario Quote
Brick Car Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 Nice truck,I love the suspension,the details and it's functionality. Quote
Imanol BB Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 i have also designed a 6 studs wide truck with a rubber suspension: i will upload the LXF later, and yes, this is the mini-town version of the lego 42043. Quote
sens1992 Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 This would make for a great set! Nice choice of colors!!! Great work! Quote
MariusL Posted September 10, 2015 Author Posted September 10, 2015 @ TheBear, sens1992 Thanks for idea with set, but I think people who like this kind of sets are the minority :-( Greetings, Mario Quote
MariusL Posted September 10, 2015 Author Posted September 10, 2015 Here's a photo of the chassis: regards, Mario Quote
Nemo57 Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 (edited) Thank you. Now it is clear. It is reliably done. And the common parts. We will definitely use. Your car should definitely put in Lego ideas. They have a set format. A gaming moments and ideas much more. Edited September 10, 2015 by Nemo57 Quote
