Hi Eurobricks community! This is the first time posting my own thread on Eurobricks and I wanted to test out if posting my MOCs here is ok or counts a spam or something. I will be only glad for any feedback I get and really happy if you like my model! The DriverRichard Petty. If you are a bit into classic US muscle cars a bit, I'm sure you already heard this name. Richard Lee Petty also know as "The King" was a NASCAR driver between 1958 and 1992. He won the NASCAR Cup series 7 times while also winning a record 200 races during his career. Richard Petty is known for driving Petty blue cars with the start number 43.The CarOn February 14th, 1971 Petty won his third Daytona 500, driving a back then brand new Plymouth Road Runner. A car from the second gen of the B-bodies, the "fuselage" design also featuring a 425 hp HEMI.The RecreationMy model recreates a car he raced one of his races in the 1971 season, unfortunately, I couldn't find out in which race he used this car. it is based on a restorated version I found here. The most annoing thing about building this model was doing all the prints/stickers for it. Some of them I found in the internet, some of them I had to do on my own. Setting them all up needed a long time! Unfortionately the printed parts didn't showed up in Blender, the rendering platform I use. That's why my friend Alexey (w35wvi) readded all the stickers in Mecabricks (which doesn't work properly on my computer) and then rendered these amazing pictures for me. You can find instructions for this model on my Rebrickable page.

Advice on posting MOC instructions
brickhead_07 replied to sammy_zammy's topic in General LEGO Discussion
You should publish your MOCs on Rebrickable. It's the biggest Lego MOC webside around. I post there too and it's a webside that helps you get known quick. -
@_TLG_ Thank you very much!

Here is the video of it in action. Never tested out top speed on a longer distance. Sorry for the bad quality and my bad driving skills!

I'll film and post it today.

Ok, I understand. It is awesome without RC too!

Hi I'm Fiete, also known as brickhead_07 and, I'm 14 years old and from Germany. To get a bit more into the Lego community I signed up at this forum. It's always great to be under like-mined people that share the interests with me. The thing that connects me to Lego so much are cars. especially old US cars. I love building them in Lego form and publishing them on my Rebrickable page.

Awesome how you fitted this unconventional supension in it! Would love to see it motorized to see how the suspension behaves on a uneven surface! Do you think that would be possible?

Excellent moc of a very iconic (not beautiful) car! Love it!
-
Stunning! Instantly recognizable with these great taillighs. I love your builds!
-
Wow, this looks so cool! all these beautiful details! The revolvers as the manifold are awesome!
-
As a fan of the Plymouth Superbird I think 2GodBDGlorys win is deserved. And the bus... Awesome! But all he others did a great job too!
-
These techniques you use in your builds are so awesome! Keep it up!

Yeah, sure, just give me some time charging up my camera.

Hi eurobricks LEGO Technic community! Beside of building 8 wide car MOCs virtually and publishing them on Rebrickable, I also like building LEGO Technic phisically. I'm a huge fan of american muscle cars, thats why the 42111 Dom's 1970 Dodge Charger was a must-have for me. Even tough I like the Dodge Charger I was not 100% stisfied with the set. Thats why I motorized it using Racing Bricks' instructions. After that, the car was much better and it made so much fun driing around with it. But more improvements were needed. Muscle cars are no muscle cars without doing burnouts and doughnuts. Thets why I always wanted to drift my charger. In needed SPEED AND POWER!!! Thanks to the amzaing performance of BuWizz I bouht one of their bricks and swapped the normal PF batterie box with the BuWizz brick. I also installed a seperate controlled fake engine, so that I could rev it while standing. With Buwizz my dream came true: I could now drift it with rims only on flat surfaces! And it now goes incredibly fast! Now I only needed to approve the looks. A muscle car I like even more hen the 1970 Dodge Charger is the 1971 Plymouth Road Runner. So I modified the front to look like the classic "telephone" bumper of the '71 model. I also modified the engine bay with covering of thecilinders with tiles and and redoing the supercharger. I know, yellow painted engines are not tipical for Mopar but yellow looked just better than red, blue or orange. The Charger isn't a Charger anymore and also not a Road Runner because it has the. Anyway I am really happy about how it turned out and wanted to share it with you. Maybe you can take inspiration of it!
