Hi guys I dont think you´ve seen this one before. It was build for a theme meeting in pur modelclub, Plastic Butchers Denmark, and the theme was of cours, road warriors a la Mad Max. I based it on Revells Cuda AAR. As you can see, it got some serious off road wheel/tires, and a massive bullbar in the front. The seat next to the driver, belongs to the gunner. The doors are welded shot, and here you can see the steps and the handle on the roof. Entering is through the side window opening. Here is a close up of the scratchbuilt machine gun. In the middle is a infrared camera, so it can be driven at night, with the lights off. Here you can see the intake for the nuclear reactor. The rear machineguns are fired by the gunner, using a joystick. He has a small tv screen, so that he can see what he´s aiming at. Not quite an ordinary AAR Cuda....

After an experience of road rage last year, that would be great for just around the city! Pretty awesome!

I have to agree with Ramone, I too could picture Mel Gibson as Madd Max in that thing....... Hopefully when he isn't drunk!!! ;D ;D ;D......Geez could you imagine? Anyway, that is a really nice build of a road warrior type car, really a super job!!! HHHmmmmmmm, put a red light bar on and some door badges........pretty cool futuristic urban police car!!!.......................Fred
