[Got Milk?]

oh ****, that thing is sick, reps

[BlkCD5]

impressive

[87 Turbo II]

Mad props. After comming this far though, just go ahead and get glass from a shop or even plexi-glass pannels cut and put in, then get the seats re-uphulstered. Great job on the bosy. Looks better than all those H2s on the road. And H1s cost what? Like 110K? This is so much better and for so much less. Imagine the pride behind that kind of DIY.

"Where did you get your hands on an H1 Hummer?"

"I made it"

I would freakin drive that EVERYWHERE.

[JITB]

[ueyedgr8tness]

Wow the most impressive thing i have seen yet.the fabrication is straight up clean ass hell.

[BTLFED]

Holy crap! That's ridiculous! :eek:

[Doppelgänger]

no gear reduction=no care for a wannabe hummer

[speedminded]

no gear reduction=no care for a wannabe hummerYou think that makes a Hummer any better off road? :tongue:

[Jason..]

sweet nice(hummer)

[Doppelgänger]

You think that makes a Hummer any better off road? :tongue:
What else gives the H1 the massive TQ capabilities?

[speedminded]

What else gives the H1 the massive TQ capabilities?They are "torquey" but just saying they aren't as impressive as you may think off-road. Being 8 foot wide makes them less susceptible to turning over but they aren't all that when getting from Point A to Point B...just throw a granny gear in if you wanna crawl :tongue:

2002 H1 specs:
195 HP @ 3,400 rpm & 430 ft lb @ 1,800 rpm


I still want one though!

[FoolsDrifFWD]

[JDMjoe]

Badass, nice find

[Stopsnitchin]

nice! thats sick

[The Yousef]

holy crap thats impressive

[EJ25RUN]

i gotta admit myself, i wouldn't know. i'd look at it and say. "Rich bastard"

[Jimmy B]

thats amazing right there.. ive always been a HUGE H1 fan...

but i do doubt 3K built that.. the dimondplate alone in the trunk was at least 500

[Jason..]

if u could fab it yourself and had your own shop you could deff. build it for 3k

do you have any idea how expensive metal is? if you own a shop you STILL have to pay for metal! lol

[Logan]

I wonder how much that thing weighs...
