Guys, found this LEGO Ford dealership, (it's not my design). I'd love to see this put into production so I could get it for my (self) kids. Good way to get the Ford name out & reel in the young ones as to their future car preferences. The guy who designed it is Australian, he says it's based on a country South Australian Dealership. It looks unreal, awesome details & realism in the workshop too.
Don't know if he's a member here, if he is well done, congratulations!!! http://lego.cuusoo.com/ideas/view/15032 |

There's some great stuff on Cuusoo, recently Minecraft Lego got all approved and is scheduled for release sometime this year, also recently saw a BTTF Delorean up there too.

Lego is one thing I will never ever get sick of.
When people put things together like this, and also the XB Technic coupe thread on here it's something I take an interest in. There is a scale sized display of the new Queensland Children's Hospital in the level 1 foyer of Mater Children's Hospital built by a certified Lego builder. The specs are on display with it, I'll see if I can get them when I'm due back there in two weeks.

That's great!!
I'm currently starting to build an 8x4 HO scale model train layout (erm...purely for the enjoyment of the grandkids when they visit...ahem...), and in the small township on one end I'll be building an old-style Ford dealership/repair shop. |

Guys, if you read the description he says, "New Mannum is just a made up town name".
He's made some other awsome Australian themed projects too, including another "generic" dealership, some petrol stations & other shops. http://lego.cuusoo.com/profile/lightning51#projects |
