CarMod

Revision as of 10:12, 3 April 2009

This page is solely for brainstorming and listing of vehicle modding ideas.

Any ideas that become decently fleshed out should go to their own page.

Light Control

• Have all lights inside and outside car be computer controllable. (think of how cops and alarm systems can flash headlights independantly). Target: lights in UFO (rotating around) or disco (random flashing) modes.

Travel Van

• Take a late 70's holden 2tonner flatbed (based on the shared kingswood frontend), and attach a stretched panelvan to the rear. Then add a campervan-style popup roof. Result: huge.

Rotary Mini

• One mini cooper (original style) + one mazda rotary engine. Mix well. Drive. Replace pants.

Party Ute

• One ute (as wide bodied as you can get - so 70's Kingswood or Falcon), add rollcage and insert speakers within. Add a fridge and toys (including projector unit) behind the cab, then couch, then a swing-door tailgate which opens down to a BBQ grill. Probably more speakers too. Result: Party on, dudes!
  • First "draft" from a Mighty Boy perhaps though? Kind of fun that way.

Dodgem Mini

• Regular mini (original style), with fake "bumpers" and a sparkler assembly on the roof to simulate hte look of an electric powered dodgem car

Oversize Tonka
