Title: The coolest Jeep ever!
Post by: JeepManMarc on February 13, 2007, 09:30:25 PM

Ok maybe not..  I actually dont really care for it but it looks like whoever built it has some nice fab skills, defenitely unique!

I've either seen that Jeep before or one very similar.  Some of the work could have been better.  It's way too fat and it's not a Jeep at all really.  So I'll disagree, it's not the coolest Jeep ever...  or even the coolest today.

actually look at it again, its pretty cool, he got the custom wide soft tope made for it, and he realy does drive it around town, as he knows fuel millage and stuff for it. :hitit:

Some things on it are kind of cool.  It seems like he kind of went Hummer with it, though.  Rather see your more standard  CJ-type fiberglass or kevlar body, 2 seats, 46" tires, flares to cover some of the big tire width. And, not fluorescent Green for pete's sake.

Course, maybe he's some place where the only way he can legally run 46" tires if they don't stick out from the body - hence, he builds the Jeep wide so that he can run the tires legally.

Guess you guys didnt sense the sarcasm of my post!  I think personally its a waste of time and a good jeep, but the fabrication seams to be pretty good and it is unique..  I can think of much cheaper alternatives to a viper engine that I would much rather have though, like the supercharged V4 a few people are using in their rock buggies, makes 580 horse.

I don't think much of the truck is Jeep.  The whole drivetrain is either K5 or K10.  The body is a CJ that's been cut in half and patched back together.  It's not as ghetto as some pieced together projects but it's pretty crappy.
