Custom Commercial Semitruck

Custom Commercial Truck

Inspiration/suggestion:

This Truck is inspired by big custom old – style trucks.

Due to Lego Ideas regulations about the number of bricks available for a single project I had to split this project in two parts, so it is the semitruck.

This model is intended to be a display collecting toy.

It’s not built minifig – scale, however it can host up to 2 minifigs and is ready to play with.
