Love the look.
Thanks for putting me in contact with Mike! He was very helpful and knowledgeable. I am going to make him a special hood for his race truck also.
Love the look.
Not sure what issues I will have yet with having the vehicle still registered as a year 2000 Humvee when only 10% of it is original parts left. What legal issues could I have with AM General for selling a vehicle with its design but little left of a "rebuild" vs. new OEM. How much interest would people have if this project took a different turn and went into full OEM package with a redesigned and updated exterior as to be a stand alone vehicle offered to the public. Would people that own H1's be interested in a similar platform that is no longer a "Hummer".
+1 Keep it simple. Then improve, if needed.Yeah, lots of questions indeed. I wish I could offer more than just nodding my head, but I see where you are coming from, I still would vote for keeping it simple.
The mini Duramax is inline 4 vs the cummins being a V8. the inline 4 should fit better width wise though the height might be a problem. the 4bt and or 6bt has height issues when swapping into a H1. The V8 cummins would probably fit better height wise but the H1 has pretty narrow frame rails compared to a regular pick up truck.
Not sure about transmission why how these would work out for the mini Duramax, Cummins V8 and or MB AMG engine.
What about resin for the carbon fiber? (I know minimal about carbon fiber and that's mostly what I have seen as behind the scenes videos of Koenigsegg making their carbon fiber parts in house)
