The Ford GT In 2016, 50 years after Ford had their first victory at Le Mans, they entered again, this time with the Ford GT LM GTE. On their return, they managed to win again with the number 68 car. This car was the inspiration for this build. The Build I started this car back in 2020, though due to various reasons it took way longer than I expected. However, I am pleased to finally present you te result! I wanted this car to have various (realistic) functions, matching those of the real car. Initially, I also planned on adding the stickers, though I decided against it at the end. This does explain the building style with the closed bodywork. The car has the following features: Butterfly doors with springloaded clamps V6 Sequential 6+N+R gearbox Advanced suspension Removable bodywork The doors have springs in them. These spring are attached to a lever which clamps the door to a 1L liftarm, keeping it shut. When opened with enough force, the spring releases, allowing the door to be opened. When closed, the clamp shuts the door again. The gearbox is not a standard one. It has 3 sub-gearboxes. There are 2 at the back, which shift either speeds R+N+1+2, or 3+4+5+6. The one in the front selects which of these 2 is active. There is a stop preventing shifting from 6 to R or vice versa. The suspension is also far from standard. The rear is the simpler of the two, having only an anti-roll bar. The front is more advanced. It has an anti-roll bar as well, though next to this, it has Ackermann steering geometry, a positive caster angle, a negative camber angle and adjustable toe, though this last one is necessary with the given geometry to align the wheels properly. Finally, the bodywork is removable. The engine cover and front panel are easily removable, but the rest is more difficult, though it is doable. I am quite pleased with the result, though probably with the new suspension, gearbox and structural pieces it is likely possible to build a cleaner chassis with even more functions. Therefor, I am looking forward to starting my next build! It is also on ReBrickable here: ReBrickable Below I have a selection of photos, but there are more, including WIP, on Flickr here: Flickr -
In the middle of last month I finished digitally reverse engineering and modifying the Morticia's Cottage (set 76786) as much as I could from the few pictures available. I have added a few things such as stairs and a conservatory, and I also replaced the drab coloring with yellow walls, green window frames, and white trim. Now, a month after the design was finalized, the model is finished in the real world... and it seems some newlyweds have just moved in! The front of the house without figures or car. The rear of the house features a back door and 'glass' conservatory. The house opens up like a dollhouse in two sections to get at the interior, then locks shut using Technic pins when closed up again. In the left section is the following rooms: downstairs: dining room and conservatory upstairs: music room In the middle section is the following rooms: downstairs: entryway with staircase upstairs: staircase landing and hallway In the right section is the following rooms: downstairs: living room upstairs: bedroom This Ford Model T was inspired and heavily modified from an incredible MOC made by user Calin, as seen here. The rear of the car with spare tire. The car seats one figure. ...that's all I got. Thoughts? -
Inspired by just 15 seconds of footage from the Youtube video “Rally A-Z – U for Unusual / Uncommon Rally Cars!” (2:00–2:15). Yes, the only reference I had was 15-second footage and a Thumbnail It’s definitely not the most exciting rally machine like a Sierra, Impreza, Lancer, or Stratos, this one is a slow, beige station wagon… But that’s exactly where its charm lies. My dad actually owned one, and I wanted to capture that quirky charisma in LEGO form. Even though it’s the Speed Champions scale, it doesn’t use the usual SC-specific parts (mudguards, wheels, etc.). Instead, I packed in as many details as possible: - (non)working suspension and mudflaps, - Road Map (no GPS) for the co-driver, - speedometer, - steering wheel, - full rollcage, - two spare wheels instead of rear seats, - fire extinguisher, - wipers, - a tiny, messy 1.2L gasoline engine, It fits two minifigs, and yes, both look like they’re panicking. I also used some rare elements, like pirate hooks and chromed parts for a proper vintage touch. The stickers were custom-designed by my friend Tiago Vasconcelos , also based only on that short clip. We added some personal twists: left-hand drive instead of right, our names as driver/co-driver, my initials and birth year on the license plate, plus the ACP (Automóvel Clube de Portugal) badge and the Webnial logo, the Portuguese company that has been printing my decals for the last 3 years. Unusual, a little boring, but full of personality—that’s what makes this Escort Estate rally build special.

Here is my heavy MOD of 2020 set 75968, 4 Privet Drive. The car is a dark blue version of the Anglia in 2018's Hogwarts Whomping Willow set (75953), and fits inside the added garage. Here is the front of the house. I added a visible chimney flue, as I didn't like how the set kept the one hidden inside the wall. The rear of the building features a greenhouse and back door to both the house and garage. The greenhouse folds up and open to get at the inside of it, which at this point holds only a telephone. On the lower floor of the inside is the living room (with record player, couch, and fireplace), kitchen and dining area (stove, sink, table and two chairs). The upper floor features a lamp on a table and a bed. This 1962 Ford Anglia 105E is based off set 75953 (Hogwarts Whomping Willow), but in dark blue. (and no, it does not fly!) The rear trunk opens slightly. Two of this part are missing in dark bluish gray, and four of this part are missing in dark blue to finish the car. The LDD file is available at Bricksafe here. Any thought, comments, complaints or suggestions?

I built 2 pickup alternates from Creator Expert sets. The first one is from the 10265 Mustang set, and to keep within the theme and time period I decided to go for a Ford F100 from 1970. The model includes steering by HoG, opening bonnet, doors and tailgate, a detailed interior and engine. Once done I thought why not try to build a pickup model from the 10252 Volkswagen Beetle too? So that's just what I did with this vintage American pickup truck somewhere from the 1930's. It has similar features as the 10265 alternate except for the steering function, which was not possible.

MOC #64 Ford Mustang GT500CR Classic video is published now. I designed this Mustang when #10265 coming out, but I didn't satisfy some detail of it. So I put it aside and work on other projects instead. Finally, I picked it up again to complete it. I also expanded my virtual Lego city. You can see what I added in the video :D

MOC #63 Ford Police Interceptor Utility SUV K9 Team This MOC is a police SUV base on Ford Explorer model. I also created a stop-motion video for this MOC.This video is the most time-consuming video I ever made. I usually release a video every week, but this video took me a month to get it done. I hope you will like it

After my 2 pick-up alternates, I returned to set 10265 twice more but this time to create 2 vehicles heavily inspired by iconic and classic sportscars from the 1960's in which Ford also played a key role, the GT40 and the Shelby Cobra which both fit perfectly with the 1967 Mustang. First the GT40 famous for winning Lemans. The GT40 was first built in England, but the later version in the US. GT04 main by Nathanael Kuipers, on Flickr The model features working steering wheel, opening doors, and engine cover with an engine that can be removed and displayed separately. GT04 open by Nathanael Kuipers, on Flickr Next is the Cobra Roadster, also a car that originated in the UK, but which Shelby with the help of Ford imported to the US. There it was equipped with a much larger engine that also required other changes to the chassis and suspension. I built this specific model for the TLCB Lock-down competition Cobra Roadster by Nathanael Kuipers, on Flickr This was a tricky model to render in bricks due to all its curves. Cobra Roadster rear by Nathanael Kuipers, on Flickr As with the GT40, this model features a working steering wheel and opening doors. Both front and rear open too. Cobra Roadster open by Nathanael Kuipers, on Flickr If you're interested to read more about the development or would like to see more pictures of either vehicle, please consider to have a look at my website NKubate.com.

I'd like to share my most recent model - 1:10.5 replica of 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429. Boss 429 was the high performance variant of first generation Mustang, equipped with a powerful 7.0 V8 engine. Only 1359 were made, and now there is one more :D Watch it in all its glory: Functions: RC drive - RWD with differential, 2x L motors RC transmission - 4 speeds, sequential, M motor Detailed V8 engine replica with fan connected directly to propulsion motors RC steering - with moving steering wheel, M motor Front suspension - double wishbone Rear suspension - floating axle Openable hood with lock controlled from the cabin Openable doors with locks Openable trunk Adjustable seats (sliding forward - backward and seatback angle adjustment) RC front lights Please watch the video to see this machine in action and for more details. I am quite happy with how I managed to include all the functions without compromising on proportions and interior in a relatively small model (46cm long). The biggest challenges were to fit piston engine over the suspension with the blue air intake under the hood without lifting it (as the result I had to make the hood hollow below the external air intake but still it was tight) and to fit interior over the gearbox. For that purpose I made the transmission very flat with gear shifting shaft actually crossing the drive shaft... (can be seen in action in the video - 2:30) I hope you liked this model. -
Hello everybody, my latest iteration is the pick up truck. The ford F-150. I am questioning a bit if its Creator or Technic, but chassis and power train is technic aspect and body is made of system bricks to deliver that specific look. It has 2 RC functions, drive and steering, steering is possible by virtual pivot point for narrow fenders look of system bricks, and only few manual options, as openable doors and rear cargo door. More photos are either on my FB page or Bricksafe page Bricksafe page Facebook Page most of all, from my MOC´s sales i am able to continue to build more creations, so it would be great if you support me this way if you like the model. Instructions are available here : Iinstructions Also can be fitted with Buwizz for more power : Buwizz -
The six wheeled Tyrrell P34 was the first F1 model I built back in 2006, using a mix of Technic and System LEGO parts. Since then, I have made several F1 cars covering about three decades, from late 60s to early 90s, all in 1:8 scale. Due to the small front wheels of the P34, the compact front suspension of the first model was working, but was not as accurate as I would have liked. That’s why last year I decided to evaluate the possibility of building a detailed and fully working front suspension for this iconic car, taking advantage of all newest parts introduced by LEGO, as well as old and discontinued ones to reproduce this state of the art model in a bigger scale. In fact, the 22969 rims and 32296 big tires that I’ve always used as rear wheels in all previous models, in this case are acting as the “small” front wheels, in a fully independent double front suspension. There is a single central anti-roll bar that reacts to the displacement of the two front axles. At the same time, the steering rack is directly acting on the front axis, while the movement is then transferred to the second axis through a pivot and levers. As a result, the overall model scale went up to 1:5, and this lead to a completely brick built rear wheel concept, with an internal rigid frame to keep the cylindrical shape and support the model weight without distortion, and an outer layer of rubber elements. In such a large model, I decided to also include some RC features: XL-motor for driving, servo-motor for shifting, M-motor for steering. All of them are controlled with a powerful BuWizz unit. The compact 4 speed gearbox is a reinforced mod of Paul J Boratko III’s solution with the new rotary selector, while the shift drum is based on the concept MK II of P-LEGO, adapted to stay within the side prismatic fuel reservoir. Obviously, inside the cockpit, the steering wheel rotates while steering, and the shift lever moves as well while shifting. Other features are the various brake cooling systems (through NACA intakes and hoses for the front axis, and dedicated ducts for intermediate and rear wheels), a 90 degree V8 fake engine with 0.5 stud pitch between banks, air intake cones, two side water cooling radiators, three oil cooling radiators (two paired with water ones, one on the rear wing support), rear suspension with big 11.5L shock absorbers and stabilizing bar, side windows in the cockpit, and more. Dimensions: 798x389x188 mm Weight: 5.3 kg Parts: about 6’000

I usually don't really post much of my work here, but sometimes I'm too proud of a certain model... Like this one. Designed in colaboration with a Slovenian GM racing team, I present you my interpretation of a 1:10 scale Ford Fiesta RS WRC Rally car. The realized functions and features are as following: 4x BuWizz motors for all wheel drive - one for weahc wheel, powered by the outer output 1x PU L motor for steering Independent high travel suspension on all wheels Working steering wheel Powered and Controlled by 2x BuWizz 3.0 Inline 4 cylinder engine driven by the front motors Opening doors, bonnet and rear hatch - the rear hatch usues shock absorbers in a bi - stable mechanis to keep it closed or opened Custom 3D printed wheels for 62.4 mm tires Detailed interior with a rollcage and bucket seats Built out of cca 1650 pieces As usual in such projects, I use a 3D reference model which is imported in LDD in order to create the most accurate representation: Here's the final virtual model - ready to be realized from physical bricks: You can see one BuWizz 3.0 under the bunnet in the front, powering the front wheels and the blue cylinders (half pins) of the inline 4 engine: Rollcage is designed with a mix of liftarms and links and it is actually structural. You can also see the second BuWizz in the rear: Anotehr view of the opened up model: Bottom view, showing layout of the motors - Front motors are just behind the grille, it was a really tight fit: Once the digital model was done, it was time to build it from real parts, 3D print the wheels and apply custom stickers. Here's the final result: I'm really happy about the shaping, there are almost no staright lines, almost all the panels are at an angle, for example the curved 3x11 panel above the rear fenders: As mentioned before, the steering wheel is connected to the steering motor (the blue clutch gear moves it). The steering wheel can also be adjusted using click hinges. Also notice the red fire extinguisher on the passenger side: Soft grey shock absorbers keep the rear hatch closed/opened: Inline 4 clyinder engine is powered by the front motors from the fast outputs via blue rubber belts. They can slip when needed while cornering: And finally here's a video where you can see it in action along with more details: To summarize, thanks to the 3D reference the body is very accurate with almost no straight lines and I'm getting really good at sculpting complex shapes. Great care was also put into keeping the car as light as possible so it reaches over 15 km/h, yet has enough torque to drive/jump over bumps, hills, etc... Thanks to the Audi's hubs, the suspension has a lot of travel and a single (black) hard shock absorber per wheel is enough to support it and absorb the hard landings. To conclude, I'm really proud of this model, it's a really nice balance of aesthetics, performance, robustness and fun! -
Hello Eurobrickers, let me allow to share a new creation with some insights made from LEGO Technic set 42154 Ford GT as an alternate build. The idea behind When the 42154 Ford GT came out with its inventory in March 2023, I was impressed by the earth blue colour and had immediately a Lamborghini Lanzador in mind to build with this pieces. I was sure that this model is doable with the given parts, but unfortunately this vehicle is an upcoming electronic car with no engine. Skip the engine and functionality only for design? Nope, not this time so I decided not to make this model and was working on some sketches for a Koenigsegg Gemera instead but that car did not convinced me at all so I decided to finally skip (pause) 42154. To be honest, I found the inventory of the set very special with many odd part numbers, but was impressed by the large amount of connectors used and blue axle pins and also red 2L axles. In February 2024, I stumbled over pictures of the Dodge Viper GTS in second generation, manufactured since 1996 and directly felt in love with this car. To reuse the headlight parts and white parts for stripes seems to be a good option and I finally got keen with the inventory of the 42154 set to make first sketches. In the beginning of March 2024, the project for the Dodge Viper was official born and the finished model ends up with impressive 1430 parts used only from the set 42154 Ford GT. Model features 1:11 scale HoG linkage-steering suspension in front and back engine with moving pistons openable doors on both sides realistic openable hood with lock detailed interior measures 41cm x 18cm x 11.5cm Model impressions Model details Both doors of the model can be opened to see the interior. Pedals are made for the driver with existing parts. The car is controlled from the back with a knob that is responsible for steering the front wheels with a linkage system. The hood opens up to 60 degrees and can be locked to safely stay in position while playing and displaying the model... ...and easily unlocked to close. Opening the hood reveals the engine that is driven directly by the rear wheels through differential. As common for B-model compromises and limited parts, this Dodge Viper uses (only) a V6-engine under the hood instead a V10 - sorry folks. It was very hard to fit all the functionality (engine + steering + suspension) under the hood in tiny space, but everything works well as suspected. Made with DieCast For the first time I used a Diecast-model and also many pictures from it. Here are some pictures for comparison: If you like what you see, feel free to support my work and to build your own Dodge Viper from your 42154 donor set. Instructions and more info can be found here Happy building! -
I was inspired by Overwatch set 75972 (Dorado Showdown) to create this modular small town auto repair shop with 1950s tow truck. I call the building Smokeys Garage. The building features a raised platform for cars to roll onto and be worked on, with folding ramps to keep the broken-down vehicle (in this case a dark blue Ford Anglia set 75953 MOD) in place. The front of the building. I've been working on this tow truck and building on and off basically since the Overwatch theme released in 2019. The rear of the building featuring a few empty oil barrels and some old engines. The main floor of the building, with the ramps lowered for receiving a broken-down car. Several types of tools hang from the walls. Upstairs on the second floor is the employee break room. The eight wide hover-truck from Overwatch set 75972 has been turned into a 6-studs wide 1950's-style tow truck. Rear of the truck. The hook is too high off the ground to actually pull anything... The cab roof is removable to seat the driver behind the wheel. This 1960s car is a heavily modified version of the Ford Anglia in the 2018 Harry Potter set 75953 - Hogwarts Whomping Willow, remade into dark blue. It has broken down, and is being worked on at Smokeys Garage. (my most recent modular building) The rear of the Anglia. The car has an opening trunk and cabin doors, and also seats one figure. EDITED 8/14/24: So, it's taken quite a while, but it's finally done! Enjoy the MOC!

For it's entire production run of fifteen million vehicles, made from 1908 to 1927, the Ford Model T came in any color you wanted... as long as it was black! These two Model T MOC's were inspired by a MOC by Calin over on Flickr. Each car seats one figure. Here we see two brand-new 1923 hardtop Tin Lizzies about to be loaded on a flatcar for delivery to a Ford dealership in Anytown, USA. Yes, I know this isn't how they did it back then, they actually loaded them in boxcars. But then, if I did that, then you couldn't see the cars! Thoughts?

"It was a Monday, a day like any other day. I left a small town for the apple in decay. It was my destiny, It's what I needed to do. They were telling me, I'm telling you. I was inside looking outside, the millions of faces, but still I'm alone. Waiting, hours of waiting, paying a penance - I was longing for home." - Foreigner and their song 'Long, long way from home' (or at least a portion of the song) This seedy, rundown looking building is a heavily modified version of half of the 2015 set 10246 (Detective Office) from the modular building line. I removed the blue barber shop building and cookie-smuggling play features, and added an exterior staircase. I also added a billboard on the opposite wall taken from the Brick Tales pop-up book's cover, plus a new, simpler water tank on the roof. Then, just for the heck of it, I decided to take my de-modularized detective office and modularize it with a removable baseplate. Why, you ask? Because I just wanted to make it usable at Gateway LUG shows since we use modular buildings, but at home I don't use modular buildings. I realized I couldn't put it on a straightaway like the original 10246 set, as there is a billboard I placed on one side that makes this impossible. Thus I put it on a corner... but wait - it's too small for a corner module! So, I decided to build in a wooden fence for the one side where the billboard is, to bring it in line with other modular buildings. I added a gate for access to the pool hall's back door, and placed a tile footing to keep the building removable from the baseplate. Naturally, this made it impossible to put in the connecting pin holes, but they are rarely used anyway so I felt confident it doesn't matter if I left them out. As you can see, the original medium nougat is changed to sand green, and the dark green awnings are now old printed slopes from the 1990's, the red POOL neon sign is now printed round tiles, among MANY other things that were changed around. The upper floor features the quite messy detective's office. Papers everywhere, a hat stand, desk fan, quite a few places to store case info and a telephone. By comparison, the pool hall is pretty sparsely decorated, with a trophy on a stand, darts / dart board, pool cues, and billiard table. Oh yeah, there is a picture on the wall too. The modular, removable base without the building attached. Be sure to mind the guard dog! For it's entire production run of fifteen million vehicles, made from 1908 to 1927, the Model T by Ford came in any color you wanted... as long as it was black. This particular Tin Lizzie's body was inspired by Calin's MOC over on Flickr. It's supposed to be based on the 1923 model year and the Detective figure fits in the drivers seat. The rear of the car with the spare tire. (I just love how Calin used the window frames mounted horizontally for the drivers cabin... it's so ingenious!) EDIT 2/4/24: I even wrote a small story about my detective, who now has the CMF Noir Detective outfit, but the same IJ hat / hair as before. "...'It's over Joe! Turn yourself in!' I screamed into the desolate train yard. Of course, no response. He knew what awaited him back at the penitentiary - the electric chair was a sweet release compared to the desolate inhuman solitude of permanent solitary confinement that awaited him. Suddenly, a movement to my right caught my eye - it was Joe, running away at full speed, bounding over switch handles and jumping rails like a scared jackrabbit in the darkness of the witching hour. I hopped in my Model T to catch up with him at full tilt, almost tearing out my suspension in the process. I grumbled to myself about sending the Feds a bill for car repairs, when I heard a lonesome wail of a steam whistle. 'So THAT'S his game!' I said to no one in particular. 'He's gonna hop a freight!' I headed for the sound, when into my headlights came a sight I'll never forget. Jailbreak Joe came to a skidding halt, trying to get close enough to the engine to hop on the front deck of the loco as it sped past. Only problem was he hit an oil patch, invisible in the darkness. He went tumbling into the path of the loco, knocking himself out in the process by hitting his head of a rail. I tried to pull him clear while the train went into emergency, whistle shrieking like a banshee all the while. Simply put, I was too late to save Joe..." Thoughts, comments, questions, and complaints welcome!

...so here's a half-finished one! ...hey, it's more than there were before, I call that a win. I used my usual inelegant method of throwing bricks at the wall and seeing what shapes work. The main thing I'm not happy with is the nose, I think it needs to be shorter but not sure what I can remove. Also not thrilled about how gappy it looks. I am happy with how I managed to add the little blue Ford logo in front though. I really don't want to change that. Also happy with the mosaic-like build on the roof. Suggestions welcome! Also, does anyone have pictures of this van's electric motors? I saw one picture but it doesn't show exactly how long they are or much details at all.

Hi folks, today i want to share with you my latest MOC. The towing truck from a car museum called Halle77 located in Dortmund Germany. It all started with me fiddling on a Frontaxle design with steering and drive and the question what to do with it back in february this year. I thought it would be perfect for a van / transportvehicle and while building an watching youtube the idea in my head was born to build the towingtruck of said location. The strange part about this partivular vehicle is the way it tips its bed. Instead of simply tilting the bed the whole truck bends its chassis. So the cabin and the bed tilt away from each other. This function is managed by this big linear actuator Between the rearaxle is a simple gearbox to switch to another function: extending the ramps from the bed Here is a picure from the belly And now more pictures from the almost finishid build. I've adjusted the position of the winch to be more inline with the real thing but i can't upload the pictures at the moment. Hope you liked / enjoyed it. If there's any questions feel free to ask. Thanks for watching!
