This guy wanted a Humvee. He couldn't afford to buy one. So, he built one!

It is amasing work. I'm sure that there are guys on here that can do this work but a project that big is crazy. I love it.

Not to Hi-jack your thread (which was kick AZZ), I saw this one years ago.

simply amazing.....but i dont think he had to learn to weld to work on this.....hes using a primative sheet metal bender, and primative tools. not saying it cant be done, but not by someone that has never done it before.

he has to have an extensive background in this, or just has a trailprotrailprotrailprotrailpro-ton of messed up parts before getting a good one.


awesome work though!

just read into it....trailprotrailprotrailprotrailprotrailprotrai lprotrailpro put POR15 on the firewall area.......

for those of you that dont know, POR will peel off in sheets if it is applied to ANYTHING but ROUGH, RUSTY metal (with loose stuff scraped and wire-brushed off)

seen it at least 30 times applied to fresh steel, or over roughed up steel.....peels off like a wrapper in a few months.

the stuff reacts chemically with rust and makes the stuff STICK.
