This was made for a competition. Now, the trend for this competition seems to be to turn it into a pick-up truck and slam it. I went a different way and decided to make a sort of Red Cross rescue vehicle. To what I have found out is that I ran out of patience finally, so I'm leaving it as this for a while before maybe adding some other stuff of making corrections.

Still needs quite some work and love, but I thought I could share it :::^)::

i'd put a big roof rack wth some fog lights on it up top, but other than that, it looks great!

Thanks! Yeah Tex the ideas are good...I'll get to it too.

An update, the first backdrop change seemed boring so I changed it again and made a collage in the sky too.

ha fog lights on top of the truck tex?? haha those are just driving lights, fog lights need to be down below the headlights in order to be effective, but i think a light rack up top with five 8" HID flood external driving lights, and four 8" HID pencil beams, on the front bumper....then add a winch, about 400' of rope, a longer antenna for the emergency CB, and maybe a snorkel and you will have the ultimate land cruiser mate ;)

Good question, I'll take one off. But added other things to it. Sadly I cannot add all the ones you suggested, Andrew, but here is an update to it.

nice, if it was me i would add a spare fuel tank, because god knows how many times you will need fuel on a safari haha, not quite feelin the exaust setup, and i like the spare tire setup you added... keep it up, just fix a couple things and i wouold give it the seal of approval to the red cross ;)

The exhaust isn't too practical for the application. If it was say a street Land Cruiser, then maybe. Don't want a Red Cross worker to burn themselves getting stuff from the back. Plus being low mounted, it might get bent up off road. JMO.

Otherwise, it is looking sweet!
