[MrJimi]

I found this and I read all of 800 plus post and all I can say is, very good project. The guy started with a F-150 and made it a Hummer
have fun and make lots of coffee


"help please" Ford F150 + Homemade Hummer Body = Ford H150 (Build Thread) - FSB Forums

Wow. I can't believe I read through all that. What a build. That's one of the coolest threads I've ever seen...

 

[KeithInSpace]

That is insane!

Wonder how an "H350" dually would look? For that matter, a Dodge with Cummins would be cool too.

What tickled me was the quote "i dont have much money, but always wanted a hummer"... he must have some money, and a lot of time, to fabricate all the cab..

Hey Guys,

Check this site out TremorMUV - a plans based Hummer styled replica and click on the "TremourMUV build Forum" link on the left. There are a bunch of guys building Hummers. I actually bought a set of the plans a couple of years ago, but haven't started building yet. Other priorities...

In reading the thread, his employer gave him most, if not all of the metal used in the cab fabrication.

Yep. And as you may have noticed that thread/project began in 2003 and is still going...

Now I know what to do with my '84 F150 when the body rusts completely off of it...

Cool project.

Thanks a lot! LOL

Took better than 2.5 hrs to follow that awsome build project.

Now I like to build (create) things as well, but that's just too much.

Plus he basically did it all with a grinder, mig and homemade brake?

Ok, I also made me a brake but I like real tools. (Brake was never capable of precision work) for small stuff (up to about 16") I use 2 pieces of angle stock in my vice and beat it over to create flanges etc.
For bigger things (like snow plow) I go to a shop that is very reasonable (cost about $35.00 to form a snow plow blade.

But still all in all his project was very interesting.
He in fact is about 20 miles from me and I plan to contact him to see if I might drop in and see his project up close. (and maybe give him a hand)

Interestingly enough I was on the bidder list for that ford donor van that he got his motor from.

Thanks for posting this MrJimi. It was an awesome read.

It's a hoax. Truth is he started with a Hummer and he's turning it into an F150.

Fellow has incredible talent to do that.I he used his fabrication abilities in a business he could easily buy a new Hummer.
