edulyoung has built an incredibly detailed Model T. I think my favorite detail is the tires. Awesome.

Arvo’s Ford GT40
Yup, it’s got a Hemi!
It’s been a while since Megan Rothrock posted her Tragon, which attracted quite a bit of attention last November.
Nathan Wells picked up a number of her latest creations, but missed my personal favorite, “Hemi” the hotrod racing turtle:

Daihatsu Three-Wheeler by Hitahita-05
hitahita-05 has built a sweet little Daihatsu Midget:
The use of the motorcycle as a front wheel really grabbed my attention. Who would have thought that new piece would work so well? This little creation is full of excellent building techniques and looks really good too! Overall, a very elegant creation.
Take a gander at the Midget gallery
Masahiro Yanagi’s Unimog
I posted previously about Brickshelf user MisterZumbi’s Mercedes Unimog. Now, Masahiro Yanagi has posted his own version:
MisterZumbi’s LEGO Unimog
One of my favorite vehicles is the Mercedes Unimog. I’ve seen two of them in real-life. One was in Nagano Prefecture, in Japan. That one was all tricked out for Arctic explorations or something (it was white and it had lots of compartments; I was ten; I made assumptions). The other one was on the Microsoft campus when I interviewed there back in 2001. It was dark green and orange (hand-painted, for some reason — very distinctive). I saw it again at the apartment complex we lived in a few months later.
Aaaaanyway, Brickshelf user MisterZumbi has made a really cool LEGO Unimog:
It looks a lot like the one I saw at Microsoft. Given how many configurations this vehicle is available in, how coincidental is that?
Note how he used the steering wheel as the Mercedes symbol. Very nice.
