[MOC] John (The Grand Tour Mongolia Special)

[StudWorks]

"What a MACHINE you are, John!" - Jeremy Clarkson

A LEGO MOC of John the homemade truck from The Grand Tour Mongolia Special, one of the most beloved episodes of all time for fans of Clarkson, Hammond and May. Since the real John was scrapped after filming the episode, this is your only chance to have the next best thing!

Instructions are available for purchase on my Rebrickable page.

 

John fits three minifigures on his bench seat with central driving position, just like on the show, as well as opening doors, a decorative winch, cameras, tools, and light bar. Stickers are added too for the license plates, the "John" lettering on the rear, and for Mr. Wilman's map that resides below the steering wheel. File for the stickers (to print on sticker paper) is included with purchase of instructions.

A tutorial will go up on my YouTube channel in the near future about how to make your own Clarkson, Hammond, and May minifigures with parts you can buy on Bricklink, so stay tuned!

Thanks, if you'd like to see the amphibious cars, these below have been built by NV_Carmocs on Rebrickable. He's actually the one who first kickstarted my TG/TGT obsession, with his MOCs, and that's what inspired me to build Oliver and John!

Ah, makes sense! I remember seeing the campers, was that him too?

Yes.

So cool! Now we just need an open box of rations on the back with some, er... missing packets.

And thanks for the heads up on NV's work - I'd seen May's car before, but not the other two.

This is really good
