'956 - Auto Chassis'

[hoeij]

If anyone ever makes instructions for the Jeep, you'll be a hero.

I always thought it was great that they would put a picture of a Jeep on the box

without giving any instructions. If you want kids to learn, sometimes you just have

to put a challenge in front of them: You have the pieces to make a cool Jeep, now

go ahead and figure out how to do it! How does the steering work? Does it have a

working gearbox? That's your call.

It's a pity lego doesn't do that anymore (afraid of returned items I guess). A lot

of modern sets are technically much more complicated than the old sets, but the

instructions are so detailed that people can build them even if they have no

understanding about how it works.
