    I love this! You can mount anything you like, anywhere you like on this. It's like Mecano or Lego or something. Modular chassis...the future
     
  3. This is the kind of shit that really pisses me off. Some idoit will put this thing on the road, it WILL fail and if someone gets hurt or worse. It will come back to hurt all of us via BIG BROTHER.
    It makes you wonder what goes through some peoples minds. In this case I don't think anything is going through his mind. Todd

  20. It looks like it would have been a lot easier to start from scratch with a stocker. I have to wonder what the chop's going to look like under the paint, too.

    Those welds scare the crap out of me. My 5 year old son can probably weld better than that.
     
  22. Is it going to be offered in spray cans for the latest in 21st century hack repair technology?
