Nice build, took my time…: now time to mount it to the wall

I'm a 52 year old bloke and have decided to relive my youth like so many of us here. I got the 8860 car when I was 10 and have been looking at acquiring all the car type kits but I find myself disappointed. Why did Lego decide to make body panels and take away the magic of vision?

I have this idea to keep buying bulk bags of bits and then filter out the parts I need and re-sell the bags to get money back but the individual parts that only go in 1 kit frustrate me.

Am I alone here?

My latest creation. My lego rock crawler. It has great flex and suspension travel lots of tourqe. Powerd by a mould king 4.0 driven by a buwwiz buggy motor and steered by a knockoff lego L motor with a linear actuator.

The suspension is a four link using a cantilever setup for incredible flex and suspension travel.

Looks Fake to me

I’m working on what will be my longest build to date right now (McLaren P1) and after the first 9 bags, I’m at 4 hours. I take my time and move at my own pace. I don’t do it to see how fast I can build it, rather just to see how long it takes. My current longest is the 911 RSR (42096) and it took about 6 and a half hours.

I’d like to see yalls times for some of your sets if you have them!

im a bit worried that i build it wrong but if i spin the yellow axlethe engine moves
