Zoom in

This is my version of a tilting flatbed tow truck for Lego City. I think there could be a more sturdy way to work out the deck, but this is what I've come up with so far.

About this creation

I'm kinda busy at the moment but I wanted to get this model uploaded. I may take new pictures or change some of them, but thought I'd see what people think.

The car and the camp trailer are from other City sets and are not MOCs. I just used them to show the truck's various uses.

I hope you enjoyed this model. I haven't loaded it on Cuusoo yet but I'll make a note when I do if any of you want to vote on it there.

Thanks cyberfrank. I'll see if I can find your tow truck to see how you did the more shallow angle. It's challenging to get a good angle while keeping it authentic in function.

I really like how you sculpted the truck, it looks pretty good! the sliding plate system is nt adequate, check mine, you ll find that it drops further down, the angle you acheived is close, but, it needs to be reffined, feel free to copy mine, just credit it please, it s a great second best, can t wait to see lego s solution, lol.
