I just got my box of 31024, I have done the unboxing video and an alternate model that I have build, the 80's Porsche 911.
This cool alternate model was design by Amaman, which I found the design photos from
source: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/398986
I build the model just by refer to the photos attached by Amaman.
Thanks to Amaman for the great design. I did done some minor modification to it by shift the steering up a notch.
I use only parts from lego 42029, since I only have this set at the time. It might not be perfect, but with limited parts this is the best I can made out of it.
It is an easy modification, it has the same chassis as A-model but shortened.
same gearing mechanism as well, but back tipping mechanism was not use.
I think, by refer the the photo and video below you should be able to replicate the model.

I like to put my wallet in my front pocket, to be more comfortable, I need the wallet to be as thin as possible. This is what I come out with. A original design wallet with eco bag material
with 8 card slots and two money pockets. Since eco bag material is not so durable so I also build another one with cloth tape and hope it is more durable.
Blue and white color bag was used. Blue as main color and white as card separator.
Thickness comparison with standard wallet.
Thickness comparison with 8 cards and some cash.
After 2 years of use, it shows some wear and tear at the wallet corners.
so I have build another one with cloth tape.
Cloth tape wallet
Since the material thickness has increase, I reduce the the wallet to 4 card slot and 2 cash pocket.
This is a lego compatible brick gun model set. It is from china manufacturer. The plastic use and moulding quality is not up to par. Anyway it does a good job as static model. but when you try to play with it, it tends to fall apart.
