And finally the "mandatory" street view picture. :)

I recently bought an old set from early 60's. The bricks were in poor condition but at least they gave me some inspiration. For most of these creations there was an original Lego model which I kind of "replicated". Or at least the pictures of old sets were studied and used for motivation and inspiration. Here's the first one, only vintage bricks were used. Bottom: And here you can see the poor condition of those vintage bricks. (They were partially glued to make at least some strenght): And the original model 310: The second one, "A movie theatre" was also made of vintage bricks from the same lot. I really like "the old wibe" you can feel in this building. Here's the backside (sidenote: the 2x16's here are newer): Those were the first ones and pretty much the only ones where I used the very old bricks. Those poor old bricks were almost impossible to build anything. I managed to buy another (actually quite a big) lot of old seventies bricks and this Shell station/garage was one of the first creations which I build of them. There's still old feeling in it and vintage bricks were utilized quite a lot, even though you can consider this as a "MOC". Bottom: The one on the right is based on existing set 648 (see picture below) but also on my own design with rounded corners. I really like those rounded corners, they are giving sort of art decoish style. One on the left was made of old and newer bricks on a vintage 4x8 plate. And the last for now is the truck 688: Hope you enjoyed. Thanks.

Excellent design! Great tribute to the original boat. Good work and thank you for the documentation.

Thanks! I do have more (and a few things with work in process) but I will make an own thread of my retro town in full later on.

That's a beautiful piece of machinery. You should contact Patria and show the video.

Here's some more vehicles. Legoland troops, to protect and serve. A few more. And more. I will post some town-scene soon. Here's my latest (still WIP), a Farnsworth house made of retro bricks.

Ha! That put smile on my face, thanks.

Thank you for the positive feedback. I will post photos of my vintage town soon.

Full of clever details! The floor, roof, wall ornament, details! Very nice.

Hello, I'm new to site but adding some contribution slowly. I recently started an "afol" hobby with Legos after 20 years break. It has been fun to discover the Legos again with my small children and see the 20 years´ development. Legos were my #1 interest as a kid and a teen. I'm now building a retro/vintage Lego town made of old bricks. The style is based on 60's - early 70's sets. Most of buildings and vehicles are MOC but some base on official Lego sets by looks or style. I now have about 30 MOCs in my town, will post more photos later. Here's my first contribution: Starting with one that Lego engineers never did at early 70's: A Legoland bus made of old bricks. :) Thanks for watching.

Hello. I'm new to this site, but I registered just to tell you that your Antonov plane is by far the most amazing Lego Technic construction I've ever seen. Keep up the good work! And thanks for sharing, its fun to watch.
