Ricky Raccoon’s red rocket rat-rod racer

If you think of a hot-rod, there’s a good chance you’d think of a modified old car, perhaps something like the Ford Model A. In LEGO form, there’s one theme that sticks out for styling its cars in a similar 1930s aesthetic: Fabuland. And if you think that theme’s bright colours wouldn’t suit a rapid straight-line rat-rod, here’s captainsmog‘s drag racer to change your mind! It’s a great tribute to the theme, making use of old parts – the windscreen window frame, and Ricky Raccoon, of course – alongside newer ones, like the red bucket headlights. Even the Wacky Racers-esque rocket on the back fits the vibe!
