| | | Hi all, With all these new hover cars hovering around, one may say there is room for a tow truck (are you really sure your car is reliable?). (URL) Post moderation : (URL) PLMKWYT! Cheers, JP. (21 years ago, 17-May-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | (...) Cool! It's got quite a unique shape - stout and brutish, suggestive of strength like a tow truck should be. The grey is applied really well, and the orange stripes liven up the front beautifully. Overall I love it, and I think it's almost (...) (21 years ago, 17-May-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | | | | (...) Oh yes, editable posts would be great! Or a function to add something to a post like on ebay. But actually I want to say something about the truck, to: I agree with everything Paul has set. It's an outstanding moc, like all the other little (...)

| | | | | | | | | | Editing? (was Re: Civilian MOC Contest : Tow Truck ) —Ley Ward
|
| | | | | | | | | (...) Ah, but that would enable us to go back in time and re-write history. If you edited your post, then I would have to edit my post etc. Soon we would be so busy polishing up the past, we would have no time to build or post anything new... "I (...)

| | | | | | | | (...) Oh did I forget to mention that? Two services in one : as we tow your car, we also change a little (improve of course) its painting, making it looking subtly darker in the front end. (...) You already have it! (URL). It's also accessible form (...) (21 years ago, 18-May-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | | Thanks Paul! I agree with you on the Bionicle parts used for the crane : a little bit big. I didn't take more time to improve it, I was too lazy and thought using only 2 parts was quite a satisfying solution :-) I will try to update it with a more (...)

| | | | | (...) Well, JP, this is up to your usual standard. It has a real 'tug-boat meets Mack truck' feel to it. The running boards are cool and really contribute to both the tug and the truck qualities. I like the bottom detail with the 3x12 wedges. (I'm (...) (21 years ago, 17-May-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | (...) This is pretty awesome. I really like the bulkyness of the shape and there are some great little details on this thing, like the running boards on the side. I think the hook is a good design, it's nice and bulky, very fitting, though I do (...) (21 years ago, 17-May-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | | (...) Thanks Daniel! About the use of the hook, you're right, I am not so sure it could be used with any of the hover car already presented for this contest... I tryed with my SRF, it works. But not with Barchetta for instance. I can't use magnet (...) (21 years ago, 18-May-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

And that windshield configuration! Gives me warm fuzzies. :-) (URL) (21 years ago, 17-May-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
