Hmmm, remember to make a way to get in. Getting in thru a hatch on the top might be a wee bit uncomfy

LOL...i did say that if i make one it will be a wee bit more conservative

we'll see bro..we'll see

i was going for something under 2 laks to modify using the resources i already have lying about(rusting chasis & engine,old hardned wood etc..etc),i'm afraid makin a caravan will take a lot of money and planing.but we'l see how things turnout.

Helrazor!

Just wanna add few thoughts. Guess your mission will fulfill your ultimate aspiration but I see some bad clouds behind.

Possibilities are high that your project will run into various security related concerns with state and security establishments especially the SL police who doesn’t know a shit about anything. You are living in a nation where paint ball guns claimed as high tech bio-gas weapons.

Recently I recall a private security firm ran into a serious problem with there four SIII Ladys fitted with thick gauge steel plates. Few arrests were made before they got clear themselves before courts but not before months long legal battles. Insane!

Food for thought mate!

Yo HelRazor, why don't you try to build a replica of a LR Forward Control? My guess is if you paint it in a concervative colour it just might be street legal

guys i'm still in the concept process,so keep the ideas comin'...i'm thinking of building it on the middle of april(after new year) when i'm on holiday..

and i'm happy to say that i' have puchased that isuzu cabin i've told you about...will post pics soon

and the best thing about building one of these is you dont need a creativity with steel and wood cos almost all the panels will be flat(non-curvy)

i hope you give some priority to driving dynamics as well (and lots of big fog lamps) so it can pull of the old trick the defender does, the a to b across colombo in 15 mins

i doubt it'she'll be able cross colombo at all, given the weight of the wood and metal i'm planing to use it's gonna be all show, no go

in that case u should use aluminium like in a land rover and bolt them with big pop rivets to get that pseudo military look
