Default Project: sand monster
so i was diging around in some of my old toys and i found this



so i thought what the heck. I am going to try to mount this on my xtruck chassis. And turn it into a dune buggy . i think this is going to be the only one of its kind . well atleats i havent found a dune buggy xmods yet.

so without further to do i present PICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





this thing is just a little biggeer than the f-150 body so i shuld have not to many mounting troubles.

thanks for ur time

Well would you look at that! In your second photo the scale looked crazy different but side by side you are right they are pretty similar!

How about its weight compared to the F-150?
