Posted January 7, 20169 yr My 42039 "E" Modell: a sport car. The features: - Openable doors and hood - 8 cylinder Boxer fake engine with exhausts - Independent suspensions on front and real axles - HOG steering from the cabin. - Developed dashboard - Moveable rear wing - 2-speed gearbox. No motor spins the middle position. Video Link: More Pictures: http://www.brickshel...ry.cgi?f=561450 Edited December 20, 20222 yr by dokludi
January 8, 20169 yr Another great alternate. I think this model is even better than your previous roadster. Although I've never heard of a boxer 8 cylinder
January 8, 20169 yr Great. Simply amazing! I like the flat V8. It fits perfectly in this sports car. Incredible, what you make just out of the parts from 43039. Congratulations!
January 8, 20169 yr The best 42039 roadster so far. Well done! The only downside I see are the seats and steering wheel - too small for that scale. But, heck, still awesome! I like the flat V8. It fits perfectly in this sports car. Don't wanna be a jack, but there's no such thing as "flat V8". When all the pistons are moving on a same surface on opposite sides of the crankshaft, the engine is called "boxer". When two rows of cylinders are at an angle, above the crankshaft, the engine is V-type.

January 10, 20169 yr Umm, don't want to be rude. Well, your link proves I'm right. It says in the article, the flat engine is otherwise called Boxer. An engine CANNOT be flat and V at the same time.
January 12, 20169 yr Very nice build! I like the two speed gearbox a lot. Looking forward to the instructions.
February 19, 20169 yr Well, your link proves I'm right. It says in the article, the flat engine is otherwise called Boxer. An engine CANNOT be flat and V at the same time. Immo, You probabily missed the point (I understood that only after reading the article 3 times...!) Boxer engine is a flat one with cylinders moving in opposite direction The so called "Flat V" or "180° V" engine is a flat one with cylinders moving in same direction The key is: boxer engine uses one crankpin for each cylinder, while "180° V" share one crankpin for each pair of opposite cylinders. By using Lego parts, one can build a "flat V" type of engine, not a boxer one... Until today, at least (I'm hoping the next Porsche model will introduce new engine parts to build a true boxer). Anyway... Really great model! Edited February 19, 20169 yr by Rikus
February 22, 20169 yr Author Thanks boys. I am glad that you like it. I put it up there is the building instructions. Thank you, Máté!! Edited February 22, 20169 yr by dokludi
May 25, 20168 yr Thanks for the instructions! What a great set 42039 is... Now i got 5 models to choose from. And the best, you saved me from spending 299 euro's for the Porsche.
January 5, 20223 yr Very nice build!!! When 2 opposing pistons share a crankshaft pin, it is a flat V. In a true boxer each opposing pistons has it own crankshaft pin, so they in or out together, they "box". Ferrari F1 were no boxers.

May 3, 20222 yr Hi,Hope you are well. Thanks heap for the instructions that I downloaded few years back. I have built The Beast. One of the facebook friend is asking the instruction. Can I give to him please
May 3, 20222 yr For the instructions simply search the internet for "the spawn 42039". It took me two more clicks to get the instructions...
August 21, 20222 yr Author Sorry. In recent years I have not been very active in the world of Lego construction. I will try to build more often after that. Regarding the description, I uploaded it to the Rebrickable page.
