I don't get what's so special..... it's just a "rat rod" like thousands of other people have built before. They didn't even have a decent pic of the truck in the article.:unsure:

 

[Clay Campbell]

I was kinda thinkin the same thing Dan. But regardless its still a cool machine.

 

[Darrel Chaney01]

I went back and read that, it didn't have what I was talking about. He used a "Bed

Pan" as a air cleaner. Try this link.

There is somebody in Canada building his own Hummer H1. He started with sheet metal, though. Last I saw he was almost finished. It was painted and everything.



I can't get the site to come up for the Homemade Hummer. It comes back with a message that they are moving the F150 site he's documenting it on. He started it on an F150 frame, so it's on an F150 site.

 

[Clay Campbell]

I believe he is done with the hummer now, last I saw it was pulling a trailer.

 

[Kevin Lang]

Yeah, the hummer is far cooler.



I feel cheated--the article says he built it from scratch, yet says that he used a premade frame and actual car parts. "From scratch" does not mean "from prebuilt components", no matter how old and decrepit they are.

Here it is, finally. All 50 pages or so!
