Highway Rig Remake 5580
After designing and building the 5571 Giant Truck remake I wanted to tackle more Model Team vehicles. The natural next vehicle to try my hand at was the Highway Rig. Which, ironically is the model that inspired me to start this project to begin with. I used my Giant Truck MOC as a basis, but this isn't a simple palette swap. The chassis has been lengthened by 1 stud, the roof was completely redesigned and rebuilt, the cab has kept some techniques but has been changed significantly to accommodate for details on the original set, and many other things. I've had alot of fun designing this MOC and I am really looking forward to showing y'all the rest of the models I'm working on!
