Lego Hotrod and Shell Service Station

Please view this sucker large and check out the goodies!

Well, I feel I might have gotten carried away with this. But, this was a lot of fun to build. Working on a larger scale than normal was a bit interesting, but it opened up a lot of new possibilities. I built all the windows in sideways, and I'm surprised at how well they fit. I managed to get that old light bar in there also, so the interior does light up, sweet.

One detail that is...incorrect, is the Shell logo. The logo I used on the pumps is most commonly seen in the 70's, while an old time badge from say, the 30's, looks much different, more like the one on the gas can next to the bench.
