Classic car inspired by 1949 Mercury Coupé

It was time for another car moc. This time I was mainly inspired by a 1949 Mercury Coupé. No, this never should be a Mercury, actually I only needed a base to play around with the 27965 flexible hose as a styling element. And I wanted to try a new idea for chrome hubcaps.

Actually I'm not really satisfied with the use of the flexible hose. I wanted to integrate it better, but my original idea didn't work. And for a better integration I would have had to change main parts of the front design. Since I already designed the frontbumper and grill, I thought this would be no good idea ;)

There would be space for a sitting minifig in the car, but this would have to be a bald, since the head-stud already touched the roof of the car. So I finally took the pictures without a minifig.

As always, I only used original LEGO parts, no custum or alternative parts, no painting, no cutting, no glue.
