1950 Chevrolet 3100 Wrecker
1gor replied to scynox's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Honestly I was planing 3100 (1951y; 1954 has completed grill), but rear wide mudguards on hotrod version I could only make with bricks (or slopes and plates). Like front part (in image with black one). It is very nice effort from you -
One question comes to my mind; for last several years I plan to make 1:15 hotrod pickup truck, but I do not have fenders (like one in 42093 set); is it OK to make them brick build or is it better in contest sense to decide to make "open" wheel hotrods pick-up truck. Thanks in advance for clearing my doubts.

Somehow rear "mudguard solution" looks to fat, or is it orange color? -
42111 - Fast & Furious car
1gor replied to Kaanere's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I think the best option is to ask @Jim about this. -
The only thing that worries me is what will front part look like, to add little help, cars that had single headlights like Tatra, BMW 328, Mercedes Benz 540K...untill 1950s Ferraris have front headlights with 22.5cm diameter and in that scale (based on 43.2 tires is 1:15) can be representing with 2 studs round dish...

@vectormatic I agree with you. My comment goes mainly to discussion about 62.4 tires; IMHO what ever modified option people make on charger it would be cool in my eyes; that was my point. Sorry for (eventual) misunderstanding -

This "thing" is cool, but true every time front is narrower (and smaller) -

About tire dilemma; real tires on those cars had 650mm diameter and are up to 2000mm wide (cars not tires ) so you could calculate proper diameter, but even then some cars had 700-750mm rear tires (diameter) like Dodge Challenger from 1970 etc, so IMHO every tire 56mm or bigger (or wider) you put on it; it will be ok, if not original then it is custom and it's also cool. -
