Don't stand there ..... you will get covered in sh*t Using spare parts from the Petrol Tanker set and the rounder tyres from the Fire Helicopter set I have built a fertiliser spreader truck. View of 4WD driveshaft. Close up of spreader disc and deflector below. Edited to include new picture of added tail lights. MOC Based on this: but using tyres like this: Enjoy

I used to make my cars, SUV's and pick ups 6 wide but have decided to standardise my layout with 4 wide cars, pick ups and SUV's. The LEGO baseplate roads are not very wide 6 wide is now for trucks and trains.

You can get one complete minigfig in but he/she has to be horizontal due to the inverted curved bottom pieces of the glider being solid.

MOC update. Parts from Bricklink including the clear stand to finish off the glider.

4 wide Pizza Planet delivery pick-up from Toy Story. Enjoy
-
4 wide pickups (called utes(short for utility vehicle) in NZ). They are based on Mazda BT-50 models which had the dark grey mudguard surrounds. With white canopy added. Looks a bit like a Pizza Planet delivery pickup Builders pickup with timber and tools. Enjoy

New Zealand: "Where to find Lego"
AllanSmith replied to Legoman's topic in Buy, Sell, Trade and Finds
Was told it is was a printing mistake. Toyworld and LEGO NZ to honour price. I have bought 1 plus 3 Grand Emporiums Warehouse in Blenheim has them at the check out. Picked up 6 cheerleaders and 5 zombies plus others using barcode cheat sheet -
Toys R Us truck. We get blue doors (only used ones on Bricklink) and blue mudguards (a first)

Thats on the To Do list

Its 8 in the morning and I have upgraded the tanker in light of all your good comments. I have lowered the cab roof by 1 plate and filled the back in. I have increased the tank ride height by 1 plate. Now only 1 plate difference between cab and tank. Also moved pivot point 1 stud forward and wheels 1 stud back. Removed cupboards and improved outlet pipe location. Have thought of a use for the other tractor unit. I am going to make a LPG tanker. But will require a Bricklink purchase for parts.
-
The high cab roof is meant to be a wind deflector. The tank blue base could be higher but I dont have many blue bricks. I found these pictures to give you the idea of a hollow wind deflector. Note that the tank unit is also lower than the wind deflector.

MOC's are kept forever. I have MOC's that are over 10 years old stored away. They will appear on my layout when I do a show.
-
Another rainy day so another MOC. This time a Milk Tanker with 2 tractor units. Tractor units are built on the dark grey car baseplate. Fuel tanks on both sides. The tank unit has 2 filling lids and 2 outlets beside valve. Hose stored above rear wheels. Rear of tank has high stop light and indicators (to hide those holes!) Enjoy Just realised I have grey wheels on the tank unit. Now changed to white wheels.
-
Hopefully the final makeover for Mack. Removed air cleaners and gave him indicator lights on the mudguards and some mirrors. Now he looks almost perfect Enjoy
-
Because I am a Town builder and it goes on my Town layout
-
Mack to the rescue. The LEGO truck has broken down. Must get the LEGO sets to the shops. I have rebuilt the chassis in a similar design to 3221 LEGO Yellow Truck. Also increased the height of Mack's cap. Enjoy some more
-
A wet day here so I built Mack from Cars with inspiration from Nathan Proudlove's version. Enjoy

New Zealand: "Where to find Lego"

In Blenheim, The Warehouse has 20% off LEGO this weekend and Farmers has 20% off all toys. I picked up the yellow truck 3221 at Farmers yesterday. -
After looking at Ralph's hot rod and William Howard's instructions I was 1 stud short in the wheelbase. I have changed my hot rod to have the same wheelbase. I have also changed how the front mudguards are attached. It uses a plate with horizontal clip. The hot rod does not use any jumper plates now.

I have updated the interior to fit a stretcher Also slight change to colour scheme
