Made this little car last night. I challenged myself by building it five studs wide, which was a much greater pain than anticipated.

That’s a lovely build. I like the way you built the engine with opposing stud work. That kind of build technique always amazes me. When I started playing with Lego back in the late 70s, it was always bricks right way up. I build sets now, like the Delorean and ECTO1, and pieces are facing in all kinds of directions! 😄

Thank you! I spent ages on getting the front done. I used sideways cheese slopes for the headlights like so:

This along with the wheel mounts is an illegal technique (not quite fitted completely).

What do you mean by illegal? How can a technique be illegal?

5 studs wide is always challenging. I’m attempting to do some Jimny’s that are Speed Champion scale. This has provided me a lot of inspiration.
