  Really cool buses, etc?
 
A while back someone posted a link to a great site of MOC's including some elaborate minifig-scale buses and other vehicles. Can anyone point me to the thread or the link? Am I making any sense? Dave! (24 years ago, 7-Feb-01, to lugnet.modelteam)

  10 wide AM General HMMWV MOC
 
For everyone who wanted to see a Humvee instead of a Hummer, I've modified the original quite a bit to create a military vehicle that looks a lot less tame than the civilian model. As always, please LMKWYT and feel free to use the rating form on the (...) (24 years ago, 30-Jan-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.general, lugnet.announce, lugnet.modelteam) ! 
 
  RE: 10 wide Hummer MOC
 
(...) Thanks! (...) Yes, I always build my models as strongly as possible. I prefer that all parts, especially angled sections, be secured in at least two places so that they can't move from their intended positions. (...) Ok, I've sent emails to a (...)

  RE: 10 wide Hummer MOC
 
(...) That one's a stroke of genius. Do you design for vroomability? This is the technical term for a model that can be used by a 4 year old for at least 60 seconds with no more than 4 parts coming off :-) Seriously, I think you should send a copy (...)

  10 wide Hummer MOC
 
I've put the photos up on my redesigned website: (URL) slightly different from the one in the two pictures in my Brickshelf gallery, and there are of course many more pictures of it.

  Model Team scale Lamborghini Diablo 6.0
 
I believe my LEGO Diablo phase has come to an end...I think I have finally succeeded in creating a likeness (but that's for you to decide).

  Re: Wheels
 
They are actually not that hard to find. Some year 2000 small technic sets have them. 8255 and 8251 are the ones I remembered. There is also another option.

  Wheels
 
Hi all, Thought I'd try some of the old trucks of the modelteam series (that were all released and discontinued in my dark ages....) just from Brickshelf instructions. Problem are the wheels.

  Re: Super-Cargo Ship of the Great Lakes
 
You may find David Karrs tanker inspiring: (URL) for the bricks, I ususally use red bricks for the hull instead of black. The reason why is because red bricks seem to be in more abundance then black. (24 years ago, 27-Aug-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.modelteam)

  Re: NEW MODELS ?!
