Default Am I Teasing You?

Ok, so most of members who have been here for at least a year should remember an old project of mine.
At one point, it was Franken-Hummer.
Then, I swapped the Hummer body for a Bronco model, and starting making a Bronco crawler.
Then, I swapped it again for a new Hummer body, and put the Bronco body on a lower chassis.
I don't remember if I ever showed you guys it on the lowered chassis.
Anyway, its a very long term project, and honestly, I haven't done much.

So far:
Lowered.
Mounted.
Primed & Painted.

You can find pics of what it used to look like here.
(Posted before my name change from "knvictd" to "imnotmikal")


And here comes the tease.
Nothing too special, but still enough to show some progress without showing too much.

That's the plan.
Although, its not as low as I want it.
It is physically impossible for me to lower it anymore.
The suspension is as low as it will go and the body can't be lower, the shell itself is touching the chassis, and won't go down anymore.

Lol.
Kind of.

Honestly, the paint was rushed.
The decision to paint was spontaneous.

Anyway, I lost all the pieces to this.
I don't know where the grill, hood, etc went...

Yikes. Good luck searching. Or hell, you could do some real custom work and make your own parts and pieces. That'll really make it a custom Bronco lowrider.

Cheers,
Kyle.

Haha, I'm nowhere near skilled enough to make completely custom bumpers, grills and whatever.
If I can't find the stuff, I'll take a hood from another model and make it fit, but I'm not making anything that custom.

Cheers,

Being a Bronco owner myself (Real truck) and am a big fan of them, Im dissapointed to see one lowered. But Im sure for this Xmod it is gonna look pretty cool. Can't wait to see some more pix. Happy modding.

I was lifted, but I decided the Hummer looked WAY better on the chassis...
