The thing that would concern me about the latest one would be the accuracy of the engine and the engine bay. What are the pipes coming off the engine? are they exhaust? they dont seem to go anywhere ending at the base of the windscreen.

Also on the right size there is a box with a ribbed tubing which looks like an air intake from another vehicle, what is it on this vehicle? the engine itself has the intake on top through the round air filter.

Sorry to be so critical, but overall it has some hidge podge elements that dont seem to 'fit'

The hose will have a styrene tube that flows up the right hand A frame ending up at another exhaust. The right hand side will have a flexible part of a drinking straw feeding to the engine.It is still WIP. I know there's along way to go but thank you for your feedback. I will post more up soon. It is hopefully going to look like an engine thrown together from salvaged parts.

I Need to add some weapons I am thinking of adding a rear facing seat in the trunk with a turret along with a mounted gun on the roof. Any one have any good ideas to get weapons? I am thinking of using smaller scale Military vehicle air fix kit. It will all come together in the end :)

Ghettocat2007,

That engine is sitting way high up in the compartment, what is your thinking behind this?

The pic does show that the old adage is true, "There is a prototype for everything!"
