You might be disappointed... I rebuild and recycle a lot. :whistle:
As a matter of fact, from your signature I suspect you have more cars than myself. ;)
I think at least one of those is asking to be transformed into a brutal bashing machine like the Humvee. :woohoo:

I think he's talking 'bout stingrays collection. Btw Edou, your humvee is n1 but bashing with non-lexan?

Of course (all the reason to quote or use a name though)! :P
But he barely has room to put his cars away. :lol:
The Humvee'll bash, just not so well upside down. :silly:
If something breaks on this one, I'll fix it.
Gotta have at least one car to put to the limit...

Maybe I'll do that on purpose then. You can bring one of your DFs and a bag of spares to bash around a bit. :lol:

I've been wanting to keep the shell original but I am very tempted now to fix a fat bullbar on the front.
And remove that flimsy bit underneath the grill...

:blush:

But it can use a more impressive nose and more balance on the chassis.
Had to put it quite a bit backwards for the wheels to clear in every angle.

Good ideas for a scratch build of this bullbar are very welcome!

I advise the bar from the original Blackfoot or the one from Team CRP for it.

B) Maybe could you use a TA01 rally bulbar with skid. This has a pretty look.

Thanks for the tips, guys. I think it's gonna be a custom fabrication though. :)
Fixed to the shell but I have no idea how exactly yet (bend some rod, that's for sure)...
