Lego Traditional Truck Bus
I had so much fun building my Chicken Bus (http://www.eurobrick...showtopic=95326) that I had to build another one.
For this I used the 4434 Orange Dump Truck as the donor vehicle, but to be honest only the wheels, arches and the lower chassis remained from the original - everything else from there on upwards was built using non-set pieces.
This is an 8-wide Truck with a 6-wide cab and the front bumper is 7-wide.
There's a rudimentary ladder on either side that's used for loading the roof area - be careful carrying that 2 x 2 Reddish Brown Brick!
There's five passengers on the roof (including the Crusty Fisherman who may have had too much to drink) sunning themselves amongst the luggage.
The interior has bench seating for eight minifigs and standing room for four more.
One final shot. We've got Mountains to climb!
Thanks for reading. And I'd recommend building a Chicken Bus or Traditional Truck Bus to anyone - just use a donor vehicle and let your imagination run riot.
Comments, criticism and ridicule most welcome!
