I got the temple of doom car chase seet back in november but last month I watched Temple of Doom and noticed that there were a few things that were wrong on the car and that I did not like so I built this

Nice! I disassembled mine and rebuilt them, but they look totally different. This one is a great mod, hated that cloth roof.

Hello!

No doubt, this car looks nice. :classic: However, I would appreciate a reference image of the original and/or some words on what you did modify. It's always hard to determine the changes when you're not familiar with the set or have the set number handy. :wink:

Cheers,

Nice and interesting MOD's you have done 'Danim', were you aiming to create different vehicle to the one that was in the movie.

The movie car had round headlights and I feel looks more like it's era. I believe square or rectangle headlights came out in the mid-1950's.

Anyway nice work and I'm a conformist! ! :classic:

thanks for the comments

one of the reasons that I done these mods is because when I was building the set when I first got it I accedently ripped the roof so it never looked right

I decided on the square headlights because I felt they looked better on the car rather than round ones
