The infamous words of Dominic Toretto, after lifting the hood of Brian O’Conner’s modified Mitsubishi Eclipse, and listing several things you wouldn’t be able to see by lifting the hood.
A ludicrous street race and the Mitsubishi’s demise at the hands of a Japanese motorcycle gang would follow, as would ten mostly terrible movies, and a whole load more modified cars.
But back to Brian’s first ride in the franchise, and previous bloggee ArtemyZotov, who has remembered the short-lived Eclipse from ‘The Fast and the Furious’ by recreating it in Technic form, complete with custom rims, opening doors, hood and trunk, working steering, and the option of remote control drive.
There’s more to see at both Eurobricks and Bricksafe, and building instructions are available so you can recreate your own ‘Fast & Furious’ street race at home. Click on the links above to race for pinks, and here to see the Eclipse’s rather more famous replacement.
