This is an alternate build of the Creator Highway Speedster (31006).
I've had this set for a while, but I didn't really know what to do with it. A recent contest over at Rebrickable.com convinced me to get building. You can go HERE to give my entry a like.
My primary goal here was to do something interesting with the wheels that was not building a car. When I saw that the windows would be the perfect size for a cassette tape, I knew I had to try to make it work.
The wheels sit loose in the housing. They can be turned and wiggle around a little like they do in a cassette tape.
The entire build is thicker and more open than I would like it to be. This is due to making the wheels fit and working within a limited part pool.
The back has less detail, but I feel like it still turned out ok. It still feels complete.
This build really worked for me. The way the wheels are used is fun and I think the build is very recognizable (for those of us that remember cassette tapes).
Build instructions can be found HERE.
