Vintage Lego Builds

Rebuilding forgotten Lego that were missing instructions

Set 400-4 : Vintage simple car

Let’s build this very basic small white car with no doors visible on this Set 400-4 leaflet, introducing small wheels with axles to the Lego inventory. It is fairly easy to build and only take few minutes. I am not sure if this is inspired from a Jeep or something else. Anyways, here’s my proposal.
