    Lego Grand Wagoneer

    So on Christmas my brother-in-law surprised my son (and myself) with a Lego Grand Wagoneer. He designed it on the Lego website somehow and they sent him all of the pieces and he put it together. The back seat even folds up!

    A little background on my brother-in-law, he is very good with his hands and designing things. Here is his GW:




    He took one of the die cast models (you can see it pictured in the background) and modified it to look like this:

                They used to come in their own box but they don't any longer. He made that box for the kit.

                  It's been awhile... But I seem to remember the LEGO site will identify the pieces needed based on a submitted design.

                  Can you get your brother-in-law to share the solution from LEGO?

                      Any idea what brand that model is? What scale is it? I need one or two of those to cut up.

                            Those are minimum requirements...if you're too old that means you quit breathing at some point.
