Lego Creation: LAPD Cruiser

Recommended Posts

I don’t know if there are any Lego fans out there, but during my spare time I enjoy making vehicles out of Lego. My creation is an LAPD cruiser. This vehicle is my own creation, but I tried to build it so that it would look like a Crown Victoria. (It’s pretty hard to do b/c the Crown Vic is a very shapely, curvy car.) The placement of lights was inspired by actual LAPD vehicles. I tried my best to create this vehicle with the limited Lego pieces that I have. I hope you enjoy it.

I am aware that the A-pillar is the wrong color. Unfortunately, I do not have those specific bricks in white. There is room for 4 mini figs in the cruiser.

I tried to make the Crown Vic's unique back end.

hmmm dammit i need to get thousands more organized, color-coded lego pieces cause my couple hundred arent enough to make cool stuff. once saw at some place at Christmas they made like a replica of downtown STL with legos. was awesome. cant believe they actually managed to make The Arch with Legos.

I also have LEGO Digital Designer, which is a cool 3D program where you can make your own sets and send them to LEGO, where they might make the set (complete with instructions) and send it to you :)

Your LEGO LAPD STWs look good! I'm making a Mobile Hospital from the 911 FR LA MOD(Hoppah you rock!). On LEGO.com they have a LEGO ditigal designer you can download somewhere on the site.

Man I have maybe 50,000 or more lego bricks and I can't do jack diddley with them. I'm that bad jk. I once though built an awesome missiole silo, the missles ran on a track from the bottom and came out the top, there were 6 buildings all multi story and it was really cool.
