1958 Oldsmobile

This is a 1958 Oldsmobile.

This is not the first car I build and this is probably not the last one.

I love old cars and building one at minifigure scale is always challenging.

Of course, at this scale, this isn't an exact replica. What I try to do is find the characteristics that make each car special and recreate this in Lego.

This model is 8 stud wide.

Or 6 stud wide on top, 8 on front (or 8 + 2 x 0.4), the front bumper is 9 stud wide, the rear of the car is 7 + 2 x 0.8 wide (7 + 2 x 1.2 on the bottom), 9 at the back.

In short: I had a lot of fun building it.

There is room for a minifigure on the driver's seat.

As always, I built it with real bricks to make sure everything was buildable and sturdy enough to be playable.

273 parts, so, no need to say the set would be really affordable.

I hope you'll like.

If so, please support!

And don't forget to have a look on my profile at the other cars I built. Some have already expired but you may still support a few other ones if you want.

PS: the car is pink but it could have been many other colors. Bright green works fine (cf. last picture).
