Day 80. Return to one a day….
Set 8041. Racing truck

I got this cheap. So unless I can source the big sticker sheet for it, and a few missing part, it’ll become just spare parts.

Day 84
Set 9395. Tow truck

Opening cab doors, steering and piston movement.

Day 92 1/2

Back in July, I posted the Fast and Furious Dom’s Charger set… day 39 I think.

last week, I pulled it down and built another classic vehicle from tv/films (instructions sourced online)

not keen on the engine sticking up, but there’s not enough parts left over to cover the hole.
