I'll get started as soon as I beat this "Impossible" vocal challenge. Then I'll whip up a fine looking set of wheels.
So I decided I wanted to build this puppy, but since all of my legos are long gone I have to order the parts by themselves. There are plenty of places online where you can buy parts. Im not going to advertise for any of them.
But I can help you with a list of parts you need. 2 of them were hard to find the names. I had to search through about 20,000 pieces to find the names.
Please note that you cant get a bunch of theses pieces from the lego pick a brick website. So a 3rd party site is the way to go.
Heres the list. I worked long and hard to get all of these pieces. Might as well share the info.

No worries dude. Just make sure to check everything off as you go along to make sure you get it all. And you might wanna get an extra windshield so you can paint your band name on it.
and I might be wrong on the small wheel types. But you can buy a cheap set in the store with the wheels you want. I ordered a few extra just to mess around with.
Sounds good.
Another one rides the bus!
If I was going to build one, I'd go Partridge Family and use all different colors instead of just orange.
You might be able to find some of the Speed Racer sets on clearance somewhere. They have the fenders and wheels and suchlike.
