Last night I revisited my Czech-Republikan Death Cars. The Czechs are technically a Post-Apocalypse army, but I had never really thought of them in those terms before. So, I took two of their cars and rebuilt them to fit with this theme a little better.

The green car and the unarmed one got re-done into a Death Truck and a Death Jeep.

The Death Jeep was an easy rebuild. I basically beefed up the car, gave it a new front, and moved the wheels a bit.

My favourite part is the iron bars over the grille.

The green car had a more total conversion. I prettymuch scrapped it entirely to build this new Death Truck.

It's basically a ghetto-ass pickup truck.

The rear door opens as well. I tried to mount guns on it but no configuration looked good, so it will just have to do as a truck. Maybe if I extended the cargo bay I'd have better luck, but that would mean moving the rear axle as well. In any case I think it looks good.

There's the door opened.
That's all folks!!

Fuckin' A, Natalya.
Also, I never realized your Czech fellows were supposed to be post-apocalytpic.

Well it wasn't an apocalypse but their story is that they are a bunch of low-tech backworlds which recently seceded from the Assyrian Star Empire in a bloody revolutionary war, but then a few years later they had another war with the Assyrians so they're still kinda ghetto. No zombies or whatever but they had seen better days.

Well, I tend to not pay attention, so this is all news to me.
