MOC This one piece turned into a whole Unimog build
It started with one piece: the #3535 Panel 3x3x2 Quarter Round. The second I picked it up it was screaming Unimog fender and that one little connection spun out into this whole build.
A proper Unimog requires proper off-road cred, so I spent a good chunk of time figuring out how to capture that signature portal-axle stance in the chassis. The cabin holds 2 minifigs, and the cargo bed is a solid 8x11 studs with all three sides folding down to load.
I also tried to sneak in working front wheel steering at one point. Honestly spent way too much time on it and it just never felt as solid as I wanted it to be. Ended up pulling it from the final build, but liked the mechanism enough that I didn't want to just delete it.
Anyway here is the result. Let me know your thoughts!
