Some might remember Mahjqa's topic where I made a chassis based on AutoBacon's MOC. This is the finished model: It's driven by a PoweredUp City hub and 2 L-motors. The truck weighs 752gr (including batteries). It's downgeared with 2x 12:20 gear combinations (1 at the motor and 1 at each axle) which makes it pretty good at overcoming obstacles. In case you wonder, the choice for knobgears was because I couldn't figure out something else that wouldn't skip in the available space. The half pins which are inserted into plates below the hub help with the structural integrity of the chassis. In the stud.io file I made for the chassis I had a 9L link across the width of the model in that area, but I later found out the front wheels might touch that construction during steering. I'll adjust this in the stud.io file. Tried my best to give the model an interior. Below the black tile of the "seat" is the hub and liftarms that give the chassis its rigidity, so I didn't have much room to play with. To turn on the model I need to use an axle to press the button below the "passenger's seat". I would have loved to have a video for you, but I only have 1 phone which I use to control the model through the Brickcontroller app. @mahjqa has made some video's of an event last weekend where I used this little car (with slightly bigger front fenders), I hope he releases a video soon Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed it.

Hello folks, few weeks ago I presented my custom version of LEGO® set 10220 (VW T1 camper van), the “canvas pick-up” for road service. After having built it I decided to design and create the model that replaced it, the iconic VW T2, introduced in late 1967 and built in Germany until 1979. The T2 is also called Bay or Bay Window. The T2 has surely been the most loved van/pick-up by the surfers of all the world. So I placed two surfboards on the load compartment and I put close to it a classic LEGO® palm tree from pirates series. Here some pictures: Below: my T2 is in my garage for a check. Don't worry, the guys know where put their hands... Below: the the LEGO® T2 alongside the KOVAP T2. For more pictures, details and informations about my T2: flickr MOCpages VOLKSWAGEN T2 BAY - "SURFER PICK-UP" on LEGO IDEAS If you like my "surfer pick-up" vote it on LEGO IDEAS. With your support the T2 “surfer pick-up” can be made into an official set. It will be perfect on the shelf next to your VW T1 Camper Van and your Mini Cooper! You can make it happen, VOTE NOW! Thank you for your support! Norton74
