1955 Chevy Pickup Tow Truck 01
I'm a sucker for rusted, beaten and worn old cars.
To reproduce such a worn look in a LEGO Moc is rather difficult.
When LEGO was launching the "Cars" licence, many new parts in great colors like brown or medium blue or with usefull prints came with it.
The only setback (for me, because I was hoping for) once the sets where unveiled was that all sets didn't really had a scale that fits into the existing LEGO world like LEGO City.
So I came up with the idea to make a kinda Minifig sized version of the famous Tow Mater.
But didn't just want to reproduce a cartoonish version like in the movie with eyes and whatnot.
I'd rather wanted to have a real life version of a rusted 50's tow truck just scaled down and made from bricks by using some of the printed parts from the cars sets.
