zombie apocalypse / mad max truck, needing ideas 1/10
 

so few years ago I built this awesome 1/10 scale military MRAP a.k.a
bone crusher . it frickin huge, r/c, lights , sounds etc
anyway, I want to make some changes to make it look a zombie killer,
ii will have a dual plow on it, but I need some crazy ideas, I don't think my ideas are crazy enough so I need everybodys help. I will take of the boom as its static anyway and im changing tires and rims, maybe adding clod tires and rims, so please , get involve with me on this, lets go crazy

Damm Joe that one slipped under my radar, you have a build thread of that awsome rig i can forward to my truck building friend ? ( not at your level )

I think its isane to "ruin" that sweet build, but you are the boss "thumbsup"

Re: zombie apocalypse / mad max truck, needing ideas 1/10
 

in search look for mrap or Oshkosh, she is all scratch except for tires wheels and axles

Was it a kit? Who made the kit?

Pretty spot on.http://www.military-today.com/apc/buffalo_mrap.jpg

Re: zombie apocalypse / mad max truck, needing ideas 1/10
 

i agree ..i hate to see you dismantle this one as it is such an outstanding piece of work .

however i like the idea of building a mad max / zombie rig

Re: zombie apocalypse / mad max truck, needing ideas 1/10
 

Wasn't a kit, he built it all from scratch, you oughta see some of his other truck builds.

I think if you add Clod rims and tires Joe, you might have to lose one of the rear axles, or lengthen it a tad to run 3 axles.

Re: zombie apocalypse / mad max truck, needing ideas 1/10
 

My friend is building on a 8x8 based on clod axels & tires, wont be in semijoe class, my friend dont have that ammount of skill or patience.

He is allso planning on making it float and add 2 jet drives to push some water out the rear :mrgreen:

Re: zombie apocalypse / mad max truck, needing ideas 1/10
 

That rig is amazing and so are your skillz Joe. I'm sure no matter what you decide to do, it's going to be amazing and inspiring. Keep up the great work.

I wouldn't do the clod rims to wide don't think it would look right on that rig.

Re: zombie apocalypse / mad max truck, needing ideas 1/10
 

Frigging awesome.Just looking at the jacks stand your using goes to show you how big it really is...You might consider using a vacuum motor just to get it to roll...Zombie good time to start new thread since the new Max Max movie out i was thinking the same thing for my apocalypse Wraith.....
very nice...."thumbsup"

Re: zombie apocalypse / mad max truck, needing ideas 1/10
 

the complete build is on this forum, type in Oshkosh or buffalo

Re: zombie apocalypse / mad max truck, needing ideas 1/10
 

wanted to say guys , you are posting a lot of great ideas, and I thank you. keep them coming though
I founds some rims that fit the project, took the boom off, going to be adding some sort of plow instead. the front of the truck will be heavier so I need to beef it up more
so its time to take it apart. :(

I replaced the leafs with a heavier springs, added some heavy duty adjustable shocks and mounted the tires

Re: zombie apocalypse / mad max truck, needing ideas 1/10
 

Hmmm, plow, A BIG Honkin' V-plow would look great on that! "thumbsup"

Far be it for me to remind you of this, but lettin' the zombies drive, as in post #14, would be a baaaaaaaaaad idea, :lmao:

When you said Clod tires, I thought you meant the big chevron Monster Truck tires

Re: zombie apocalypse / mad max truck, needing ideas 1/10
 

the truck took so long to build that the driver died and turned to bones on me, new driver wanted lol

that's a great lookin plow. I was going to go with the clos tires but to big

Re: zombie apocalypse / mad max truck, needing ideas 1/10
 

Let me start by saying I loved watching you build the Buffalo, the attention to detail and quality of work is incredible! If you're still looking for ideas google image search "mad max vehicles." a lot of results like this

Otherwise Suggestions I have would be to make it look like it was abandoned for a while, run over and then found.

Other ideas

-bars instead of windows
-blood?
-rust?
-a lot of firepower
-spikes everywhere?
