August 25, 201113 yr Excellent work there 'de-marco', both the red and the blue carts are pretty dam close to those one's in the photos. Keep up the cool work and Brick On !
August 25, 201113 yr Those are some great funky little vehicles 'demarco'. They look great. What are their origins apart from 1958? Great job
August 25, 201113 yr That is one crazy vehicle. Before you posted the pic of the real one, I thought they were some cross-over Fantasy/Castle/Harry Potter centaur thing. Where the heck are these things used???
August 25, 201113 yr I've never seen anything like that but I like it. They're almost like functional go-karts. Nice work.
August 25, 201113 yr could you show us a dissasembled view as I would really like to have one of these for my city
August 25, 201113 yr This pic shows how the real thing was steered by shifting body weight on a pivoting platform. Specs from another site: 6 horsepower 15km/h top speed Load capacity 2 tonnes :classic:
August 25, 201113 yr Never seen anything like that before, but you've really nailed it - these are brilliant replicas. Steering a motor vehicle by shifting your body weight? Sounds like Segway, only 50 years earlier... And compliments on your photo skills. Super crisp.
August 25, 201113 yr Nice rendition of thses peculiar vehicles! I remember seeing them somewhere years ago, and I was facinated by the ingenious steering mechanism
August 25, 201113 yr I love the funkiness of this vehicle. It looks very cool in lego too. Awesome job!
August 25, 201113 yr You've captured them very well in Lego, very smooth design! I reckon the originals are battery powered?
August 25, 201113 yr I reckon the originals are battery powered? Nope, one cylinder diesel engine. :classic:
August 26, 201113 yr awesome! can you tell us which parts do you use for the tires? do you use... this: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=3139 plus these: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=122c01 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=122c02
August 26, 201113 yr Interesting MOC. What country are those cars from? Kind of reminds me of the transports in Star Wars Episode IV.
August 26, 201113 yr They are made in germany ;-) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicar and I totally like the MOC Edited August 26, 201113 yr by harakiri
