I think that the body would look cool, the only prob i can see is making door to get in and out.

Those front fenders are great. Nice work.

I like the design. I wonder if you have allowed for elbow room as you turn the steering wheel. Most Sevenesque vehicles with door coverings have a bump-out at the rear of the door to allow for this.

Its just like a little tiny jeepney :wink: There should be a locost field trip to the philippines to ride in one. You would be amazed how similar they are designed and built.

hello guys! its been a while!

i have not yet finish my car yet. i stopped for a more than a year now! for personal reasons..

anyway when i decided to continue my dad completely took over my car... build it in his own way as he saw fit!

at first i was a bit shocked that and a bit angry that my project did not go according to plan as i want it. but what the heck! i want the car to be finish! so i decided to go with what ever was done. seems fine to me.

but just after my dad started the project. we got hit by a bad storm witch left us with high flood for months! :BH:

here are the pics
Image

we manage to raise up the running cars that where stranded inside the garage. the water in the garage was at 2 feet deep. and was still climbing so needed to get the Running cars out of there. but the problem was the garage was about 1-1.2 meters above the road. so the water on the roads was 1.5-2 meters deep.

Image

Image

we were using boats to get in and out

Image

Image

Image

Image

Remember that these cars where lifted already by a good 1 feet high above the garage floor

so we towed the cars using a "BALSA" similar to a barge. except its made of wood, plastic foam, bamboo and ropes.

Image

Image

luckly the flood is gone. and the project somehow start(ish) again.

Nice driveway full of cars! Love the Beamer, and the 'Stang'. But why all the distress from the flood? You have a LAND ROVER DEFENDER!

And BTW dont be too upset, your father does amazing sheet metal work! Looking good! Hope you have some really positive offset wheels picked out, as your track width looks insane!
