H1 (not hmmwv) now seats 12 people. Mix match of parts

[Roddyo]

It looks incredible.

I hope you do some youtube videos of it when you are done....

 

[srodocker]

holy crap that is nice!

 

[MASIC]

good idea on the YouTube video. I will start creating a video asap

I'm just wondering how much weight you added to the truck with all the extras besides the top? I think it looks great I'm just wondering if the extra weight is going to slow it down and kill the mpgs?

 

[MASIC]

I will post the results as time goes.All of the additions made to this truck has been out of aluminum where it was possible roughly 95%. I'm curious as well. I have the purchased parts already for a Cummins conversion but I think that t would be advantageous to provide data as the truck sits with the non turbo for those who were thinking about adding a top like this to theirs then post results after the engine swap which I don't plan to do until spring when it warms up.

Just a picture update. Still more to be completed.

WOW that is very nice, good work! Great job, that looks better than factory built!

 

[nattieleather]

Looks great. How does it handle with the top on it?

While that thing is awesome, I am personally not a fan of the hood scoop. Awesome job though, it looks great.

The hood scoop was added due to the heavy snow that we get up here. I've experienced a frozen cooling stack 4 times and the 4th time I had to replace the radiator. The scoop has kept this from happening since and I have used it to keep the engine warm by stuffing a pair of coveralls inside. I don't like the look as well but with a heavy brush bar and a hood mounted pioneer kit should reduce the eye sore lol

The scoop was designed by a friend of mine. Or at least a design like it. The scoop really helps keep the vehicle engine cool during summer runs in the desert. While im not a fan of how they look (scoops) they do perform better than without them. Now I see it performs better in the cold as well. Thanks.

Im thinking about trading this for something.... any thoughts? or offers?

Was that H1 originally one of the Rebel Adventure Tours vehicles? I noticed the yellow paint and I was able to purchase the last four them myself.

well, what are you interested in?

 

[MASIC]

This was originally a convertible hummer H1 that was used privately world wide through some sort of power generation company.

 

[MASIC]

well, what are you interested in?

Anything really. I like to odd looking military vehicles, older and nicely restored, aircraft, boats and buses.. I'm game for anything actually lol

You should have just called me if you wanted to seat 12.




Seriously though, nice work.
