Really cool! Just don't like the wheel to tire ratio and the shiney paint.

 

[BEFE]

Agree needs more rubber less wheel.

Baja 500 Race Ready??? I'll give it a shot, but it won't have near the cushion a fat chick at a dive bar would have!

:cheers:

That company doesn't know how to list **** for H1's.

That being said the cooling and suspension looks interesting, however... those ****ing wheels has to go. You go over a speed bump in that thing, let alone a desert whoop and you are cracking the hood off that thing.

Curious about the engine/transmission setup and specifics. If the Engine isn't stock [doesn't look like it] then the most you can do with it is have it as a race support truck since it won't meet Class 8 rules.

For $250k though? You may be better off buying an H1 for 50k and give 200k to someone like Mike S. who can probably build you a class 8 legal clone of his race truck or buy rod halls old race truck if that one is still for sale [I think it was for 100k?]
Not seeing 250k on this.

Baja race ready ? I would put good money on that set up not making as far as Ojos .

I like the idea, but the exaction of the idea makes me queasy to my stomach.

Some idiot with more money than sense and a deep concern for their image will probably pick it up at some point.

No specs on the engine(s) and transmission? No photos of that? Definitely not a high travel suspension
