72240z Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 lol ya, thats a warthog but Id rather have the real thing :D Ya who wouldn't lol. I remember seeing a build thread on that somewhere I'm sure you saw it too. There is a whole forum dedicated to movie/game cars/trucks, like the jeep and explorer from Jurassic Park and what not, pretty cool lol. Quote Link to comment
WagDatto Posted December 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 Plan is to modify the front end to make it look like a 510. Body looks like a convertible flared 510 already. Thinking maybe a paint job to match the Boso Goon and some boso pipes to give me some inspiration for the real thing? Give me some faith, I'm not about to ditch dimes for a jeep!

WagDatto Posted December 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 Haha waiting for a shipping quote on the motor. Found a free bedframe, but need to pick that up. I'm currently moving into a new house, so no work is really being done in the next few weeks. January after my vacation, I'll be cutting and welding and fabbing! Tentative Plans: Steel frame 8hp motor Stock body, modified seat and rear roll bar to fit a large adult Stock wheels to start, but leaving the possibility open for Go Kart wheels for traction Lowered stance, possibly slight negative camber for grip on a top-heavy car 510 front end conversion Paint Video of us hurting outselves.

WagDatto Posted December 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 (edited) So we got some work done today. We sawed off the roll bar and removed the seat, then took her for a fake test drive! Yeah, now we're plotting all the dirty details. Edited December 20, 2009 by WagDatto Quote Link to comment
WagDatto Posted December 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 Here's a bored-at-work MS Paint rendition of how I see myself in a few months. Let the games begin. Quote Link to comment
