Came accross this site today:
http://www.rhinobuggies.com.au/hammers.htm
The kits can be fitted to a leaf or coil sprung LWB Nissan chassis.
Looks like it would be a great project but not cheap.
Anyone had a good look at one yet?

One question in regards to those hummers
Are they registered as 'patrols' or ICV's ? in regards to using 35's??

agreed 110%...what a waste.
Both the H1 and H2 Hummers are not all that great. In my town is many of both and you never ever see them on a trail. Conclusion....the Hummer is a yuppie truck. The only reason I can see to put a Hummer body on a P-troll is because the Hummer sucks and the P-troll does not!

Here is what I think of this idea
It is like taking a 100 Us dollar and saying it is a 1 UK pound

so you go the auctions and buy a rolled gu for 3 grand, you then have 1 of 2 choices. spend 20,000 on a new GU body or a hummer conversion.
I know i wouldnt even look sideways at the GU option.

I would have agreed with you right up until I looked at the photos of the interior of the "hammer".
It looks seriously crap.
