    So this is what happened to the newly purchased Hummer brand. Those Chinese were quick to turnaround a new product.

    This is how to make a real Hummer look like either a cheap Chinese knock-off or a bad kit built on a old Suburban frame.

    I'd take it.


    I'd smash the front end right into a wall. Then I would tell everybody I go off-roading every weekend.


    I think I might kick-f*ck it a little too, just to make it more believable.

    I like Hummer's because they show everything that is right about being from the good ole US of A. But who ever owns this eyesore, needs to get there money back, at gunpoint if necessary.

    In reply to Man Hand-Building Hummer H1 From Ford Scraps
    I hear lots of bitching and crying how it isn't a good copy, how it's not a decent chassis for offroading, yadda yadda yadda bullshit bullshit bullshit.


    How many cars have the whiners built? Was that a perfect copy of something original? Or did you cut corners, take advantage of preexisting hardware, turn a blind eye etc.


    The guy likes Humvees. He built one. It isn't a perfect copy but I'm confident that if he wanted to he could've built that. He brings a mountain of skills to the party and has wrought what $75,000 can't even buy anymore, and he's done it with a strong eye for detail without letting the concours d'elegance ruin his goal of achieving a roadable machine.


    What do any of you care whether it has portal axles or not, a diesel or not? He's building his own truck, almost from scratch. He doesn't care for GM, which sells the AM General-built Humvee, so he's using Ford mechanicals. He's blazing his own trail.


    That's Jalopnik, folks. I got nothing but respect.
