Is that a "long arm kit"?
Who's the driver?
very young Mel Gibson from the first Mad Max. One of my favorite Movies growing up. They played it every Sat night at the drive in for years when I was a kid growing up. Good times!

This is the best thread! Thank you for all the ideas and renditions! This is the BEST window shopping, Jeep Dreaming on the intraweb!

.....

I'm thinking a cab height rack (fit it in the garage) with top/roof for shade and support.. Do I have a cage or a soft sided cover or do webbing all around for the dogs? Like the ladder concept, but those are usually built for foiks with tiny feet...

If the rack is even with the roof, do I need a wind dam thingie? No, right?

(Those RTTs are pretty damn cool. Expensive though and I have a decent tent.)

depends what the rack is made of? If its a bunch of bars for wind to crash into, a wind dam thingie might be good to bump the air up a little bit to reduce the turbulance.

This is my 1 semester of engineering in 2001 opinion.

Wow I always thought it was an AMC. I think most of us in America thought the same thing. All the Mad Max tributes I have seen were all AMC AMX's

You go your whole life living a lie then one day, BAM an Aussie blows up your little island. Now your island is crawling with Kamodo Dragons and Koala Bears, but you're determined to take back the island, so you get a tattoo or two, buy an AK 47 from Dunhams and go to work......

I call it Bob's Revenge. :ontheloo:

I think the AMX was maybe the closest looking vehicle in the US...but I’m also pretty sure it’s also alot smaller.

I know @Ian cj10 knows i'm just messing whenever I exploit my very limited knowledge of Australia, but is it common, or inapropriate to call somebody from Australia an Aussie?

I don't want to inadvertantly be using the equivalent "N" word and not know it. :asshat:

P.S. I recently read my son a book about if a Komodo Dragon fought a king kobra, who would win. lol
