Background

As a classic car enthusiast and a fan of LEGO’s new and unique curved elements, I was inspired to create a classic 50’s-style car in the iconic dark turquoise and white color scheme of the era. This car isn’t based on any specific brand or car but is an amalgamation of attributes and styles from several different cars of the time. As a collector and admirer of the Creator Expert and Icons cars from LEGO for several years now, I designed this model intentionally with their quality, stress tests, and limitations in mind. The build has a couple of trickier parts but is in line with techniques from adult level sets.
