The wings are really hinged because I douldn't make up my mind on how I wanted the wings, so (...) (22 years ago, 16-Apr-03, to lugnet.town, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)

Hi again. Cars cars cars - one day I must build a building. Inspired by Robert McLean's minifig HZ ute (whose mirror design I've also used here), and Braith's call to 'keep the Australiana coming', I built a minifig scale FJ Holden. This one became (...)

(...) Joe, Yes, another great addition to the fleet! I like the overall shape of the craft...looks as if it's ready to take on a whole slew of squids! The hinged wings are a neat aspect to an already streamlined design. The drone looks good (...) (22 years ago, 15-Apr-03, to lugnet.town, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)

Here's another 6-wide car. This one became a bit of an exercise in half stud offsets (once you start forever will it dominate your MOC), but I'm rather pleased with the result.
