Here I present Billy Bob, with his 3002 BricksWagon™ Scarab outfitted for
crystal prospecting:

When Billy Bob received his
inheritance, he decided to use it to move to New Seattle and try his hand at
some prospecting. He purchased the stylish and economical Scarab, and has had
good fortune in mining in the past year.
I’ve finally gotten around to using
those curvy windshields that have been gathering sawdust. I like the way they
look, but they sure aren’t the easiest parts to use if you want a canopy that
opens up. I did this ship a couple of weeks ago, and it was my first experience
with the frustration of using these things. I’ve done a couple more ships using
these parts since then, and I’m still annoyed at the design of this part.
Anyway, I’ll post the others as soon as I can- though it will likely be after
BrickFest PDX.
