Size MATTERS!!! HummVee H1

[Rolex]

William, my UPS guy, showed up today with a 17 lb. box.
Here it is, the monster Humm-V, right out of the box. It will get stripped to bare bones, painted a military desert tan and mounted on a custom chassis.

That's not dust and scratches, but reflections.

For a better idea of its' size, here's the AX-10 lid on the roof rack.

Here's the Blade CX-2 ready for takeoff. This will be the color of the Humm-V once it goes to paint. Humm-Vs don't look right all prettied up, and Hummer H2s and 3s don't look right in military dress, so here's the right body for the right job.

Hard to believe, but that's a 2.2 Axial bead lock wheel and tire.

For size comparison, here's a few things everyone should be familiar with. An Axial 2.2 wheel, a Motorola RAZR and a CD.

It's still hard to relate to the size of this rig. It would probably turn my extended and widened Savage into a scaler.

Wow, that thing is HUGE!

 

[NCNitro]

Man, that thing is huge! You're gonna need some clod axles to fit under that lid. And even at 17 lbs, it's still about 10 lbs lees than the Savage

 

[B-MILLER]

that thing is a beast

can't wait to see just lid pics

Well, it's ready to take apart. I charged up the batteries and hit the floor with it. In about 1 1/2 minutes I had snapped off the driver's side mirror. Typical toy controls, full left, center, full right, and full forward and full reverse. Not digital, no in between.
I might have to do some serious research to come up with the right running gear.

 

[B-MILLER]

its screamin clod axles definately and some big ol rock crushers

 

[Bartek]

that is massive!
I wonder how it will end up...

 

[abadk9420]

Clod axles with some 40 series beadlock wheels and some Moab tires, JK I'm not sure where exactly your going to end up with this one but I am sure it will be BAD A$$ as always when you are done, speaking of done what's up with the ugly truckling? Oh and now your going to need a bigger Helicopter to keep things looking more scale looking at your scaled down military base, LOL!!!!!!

 

[slowngreen]

cheese and rice thats big!

 

[Bartek]

cheese and rice?
never heard that one!

 

[Rolex]

Stripped and ready for body work.

If this thing was any larger I'd have to get it registered and insured.

 

[alpinehyperlite]

If this thing was any larger I'd have to get it registered and insured.

No, you only have to register and insure vehicles that are actually used.

 

[Rolex]

LMFAO!! Well, I'll add it to my homeowner's policy in case the shelf breaks.

 

[B-MILLER]

it looks great as a truck

 

[chelseafc385]

Are you going to keep the back on or are you going to take it off?

Looking good!

 

[Rolex]

I'll be leaving the back on since I never cared for the look of the open back or the slant back. It will be similar to the lid I had on my Tmaxx.

 

[NCNitro]

Holy Crap! That T-Maxx is actually outside. :whhooo:

 

[chelseafc385]

Holy Crap! That T-Maxx is actually outside.

Its not really, he photoshopped that background in! If he hadnt photoshopped it, all you would see is a cloth and a tin of polish in the background, and of course the odd one or two CCTV cameras.

 

[Rolex]

Holy Crap! That T-Maxx is actually outside. :whhooo:

LMAO!! This was a daily runner, and not only did it see dust but it saw water and MUD!! The medications have helped a lot since then.

That's REAL mud. :whhooo: I didn't paint it on.

 

[NCNitro]

That's REAL mud. :whhooo: I didn't paint it on.

You don't expect me to believe that, we have all seen the ugly truckling.
