Survivalist Car

Just a desert car I built this week. It is inspired by the old adventurers jungle car.

Image

Here you can see the two machine guns. They are powered by the battery in the front seat. In the back there is the gunner seat and a second engine (obscured from view).

Image

The guns themselves can take single radioactive rounds, or the default round drums. The gun slides on a bar, and the barrels can be positioned up or down. Those tan packs contain the uranium bullets.

Image

After a bit of converting, the ride now seats the driver's girl/ a random surviver.

Image

It also has a rather dangerous jumpseat space.

I seriously did not see that! The only cars I've seen from Natalya are the ones from her Jungle Rampage and Death War. My car is based off the jungle adventurers car.

@Natalya: could you show me how you made that front grill?

I love adventurer vehicles, they're an easy way for goodlooking jeeps.
I use them too: http://s2h.hyves.nl/album/43041007/brix ... 26/0/lebz/

if 20 chickens can fit in a brick, how many pingpongballs does a crocodile have to eat so it can swim faster than a washing machine?

@Ranger:

Okay in the pic there... See the yellow headlights are on the light gray bracket-type piece? The grille is just two of those dark grey vents like on the hood there but mounted inbetween the lights on the top bracket and in between the metal bar thing's clips on the lower bracket. If you look at the very bottom of the headlight there you can see it has some separation between it and the clip below it -- that's because it's just two of those brackets that the whole assembly is mounted on.

Maybe this pic helps you see the bracket piece I'm talking about?
