martijnnab Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) I just released on Rebrickable my Lego Technic model of a Rolls-Royce Phantom II Coupe [1934] The model is fully RC controlled and has back-side suspension, functioning side-folding bonnet, trunk, suicide doors and working engine. It is operated by 2 L-motors and a servo for steering. I build it in about 40 hr. over a period of 2 weeks and made instruction of it that are free to download from Rebrickable. http://www.rebrickab...m-ii-coupe-1934 Be sure to also check out my other models on Rebrickable. Update: Just have to add these incredibly nice renderings that jesuskyr made for me at his own initative. Thanks a lot for them. More pictures are in the later postings in this topic.

Theo van Vroenhoven Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Very nice! I am going to build it soon! Quote
Zerobricks Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Awesome model and presentation! Any way to add suspension? Quote
Jeroen Ottens Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Beautiful model Great lines, both the bonnet and the mudguards. Quote
martijnnab Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 Awesome model and presentation! Any way to add suspension? Back suspension is in already. In the front was not possible as the space is insufficient and front of the bonnet stops directly above the steering. Quote
grum64 Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Very nice indeed. Thank you for making the instructions available. Quote
martijnnab Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 I just applied. I will give noticr once it is approved Quote
lcvisser Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 That is way cool. I love how you reproduced those flowing lines of the car. Very impressive. The movie is brilliant! Quote
miguev Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Rolls-Royce Phantom two. 4.3 litre, 30 horsepower, six cylinder engine, with Stromberg downdraft carburetor, can go from zero to 100 kilometres an hour in 12.5 seconds. And I even like the color. Wonderful model! Too bad I'm missing so many parts (>100). Quote
martijnnab Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) Yep, just couldn't fit in 6 cylinders, so I had to settle for only 4.... Regarding missing parts: Bricklink can solve all your problems ;-) Edited March 22, 2015 by martijnnab Quote
martijnnab Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 There must be 101 spotty creatures around I have had more people making the reference to Cruella's car. Funny that the model brings up memories of this classic movie.. http://disney.wikia.com/wiki/Cruella%27s_car Quote
Rishab N Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 Awesome model. You really modeled the curves well Quote
robuko Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 Very nice super car! It's good to see such a lovely and different build. Thank you for making it available. Quote
5imon Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 Beautiful! The mudguards are brilliant, using the angled connectors for strength and the flex axles on the outside to convey the impression of a smooth curve. It's really a pity that all the tyres we have are too wide for this type of vehicle, but the 62.4 x 20 are still acceptable. Quote
Lucio Switch Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 Graet MOC! It makes me want to build the yellow Mercedes SSKL of Lupin the 3rd. Quote

It's really a pity that all the tyres we have are too wide for this type of vehicle, but the 62.4 x 20 are still acceptable. Agree on the tyres. I first wanted to build it using the motorcycle tire ~100mm. but then the model would have been close to 70 cm long and that was way too big. This tire is the only one suitable, but indeed still too wide. Graet MOC! It makes me want to build the yellow Mercedes SSKL of Lupin the 3rd. I checked it out. That's indeed a great alternative classic car. Too bad the flex angle connectors 32126 don't exist in yellow as far as I know. Quote
Thirdwigg Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Very creative work. I love the shaping of the hood, and the application of three colors is spot on. Well done. Quote
Kelkschiz Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 I am really impressed by this moc, it's a complete moc, it has it all. Quote
martijnnab Posted March 25, 2015 Author Posted March 25, 2015 (edited) Thanks you all for the compliments. As you can see I have published by Rolls Royce on Lego Ideas. Any endorsement would be highly appreciated if you like the model. https://ideas.lego.com/projects/97642 Edited March 28, 2015 by martijnnab Quote
