bigger front wheels is a must, plans for a body are easier said than done, it needs a custom scratch built one, but i think im leaning tward a international harvester flatbed style from WWII

half traks are trippy...for bods you might check out tamiyas military model collections...not sure if scales would work for your needs but maybe an option?...VERY creative man...is this the first non Ford project???

xmod S1

i cant find a prebuilt model for it, the size is really weird on this

ive dont other non fords, a MR-S,working on a vette, and a few others

not only is it creative, i think its the only xmod half-track ever built (atleast that ive seen)

thanks man, it really is cool to drive around, it might be slow and needs a lot of space to turn but its worth it

i have plans for a tank too, just not the money
