Homemade Hummer

**DanWS6** · 10-07-2007, 09:18 PM

A lot of you have probably (hopefully) seen this before but in case some of you haven't I'll post about it.

This guy claims he's always wanted a Hummer, can't afford one, so he decided to fab his own..

I check the thread every few months to see the progress the guy has made.

Pretty amazing stuff.

I was expecting a half-ass ugly piece of shit. That thing is fucking amazing. That dude has a serious talent when it comes to fabbing something. Very interesting "think out of the box" build.

Yup. I've yet to see anything else like it on the net. I do wish he'd put together an actual website for tracking the build as clicking through 30+ forum pages takes a while but it's still worth the effort to see the progress over time.

**superchargedblackgto** · 10-07-2007, 10:13 PM

He did a fantastic job.......I skimmed through it, not enough time to read it all, but It made the favorites on the 'ol PC. I'm impressed!!!!

i wonder why he didnt buy a kit body?????????

Most people buy this body and fab a H1 hood so to look identical to an H1. On the show on skipe tv(xtreme 4x4) they put one of these bodies on a suburban chassis. Swapped a duramax tt that banks hand built into it......damn thing made like 800 hp and 1300 lbs!!!!.

**B34M3R** · 10-08-2007, 04:10 AM

Yea I've been watchin that thread for a few months now...

He didn't get the kit because he did it WAY cheaper, and also because alot of customers have gotten crappy parts with the kit. The only thing he didn't fab himself was the hood... which is an actual H1 hood.

Will do.

that's crazy. Did you catch that the guy had to teach himself to weld before he started on it? I was proud of my truck exhaust I put on yesterday until I read that. I read all the pages too.

Good find and keep us posted. He sounds like he really knows his stuff when it comes to design and he also sounds like a really fast learner. I have neither the knowledge or discipline to ever attempt anything like that.
