Fun Factor.
I'm back again with another take on the GOAT Kart, the classic Mini Cooper S. Famously way more fun than any spec sheet would suggest, the Cooper S is the very embodiment of the outrageous fun to be had by driving a slow car fast.
This design sits one plate lower than the 2019 TLG design, and thanks to a panel-based floor pan trap inspired by the 4w community, a minifigure can sit a full two plates lower than the TLG model, as low as possible while still being able to secure the roof overhead.
Despite having some light stance and an offset wheel-tire setup, this design rolls smoothly and displays great. 2x6 tiles are used for the roof creating a rear spoiler overhang, and the roof can also be built with no overhang if that look is preferred.
I hope you enjoy!

Street Muscle Legends - Chapter 4
Fury Road.
With an imposing look and potent V8 under its bulging hood, the once niche Plymouth Sport Fury GT has slowly found its place in history as a sleeper cult icon. In 1970, buyers who wanted a proper performance-oriented full size car had few options left. Plymouth’s GT package transformed the Sport Fury into a serious performer that bucked the trend with a nicely appointed upscale interior and a massive 7.2 Liter Commando V8. The PYP garage recently worked some tuning and stance magic on this example, and necks have been breakin’ ever since!
I hope you enjoy!

Street Muscle Legends - Chapter 3
The Torino Talladega was one of Ford's first forays into producing track-focused homologation models intended to dominate the racing scene. The Talladega changed the muscle car landscape by being the first limited production car to incorporate design changes based on wind tunnel testing into both the silhouette, side rocker panels and front fascia of the car, all leading to significant performance enhancements and legendary status. The PYP garage has been humming along all week to the tune of this beastly hunk of 60's muscle and the smiles just keep coming.

Photographed during the southeast Michigan C.A.R.S. Club fall color tour on October 22, 2011. The
first stop on the tour was R & A Engineering, a world-class restoration shop near Manchester.
This Chevy big block V-8 engine has been placed in a 1947 Cadillac which is getting something of
a restomod treatment. The car has been in the shop well over a year - I photographed it back in June, 2010. Apparently some parts are not arriving in timely fashion.

The TR3 was built by Triumph from 1955 until 1962. This is a restomod based on a 1958 model. It has a lot of changes to the body and the chassis. Now it's powered by a 5.6 litre Ford V8 engine with 415 PS.

I cannot overstate how perfect this car is. The attention to detail is second to none. It belongs to a close friend of mine.
