OFFICIAL* Dante's Peak Suburban Build *

[ryoken]

that's ridiculous..

obviously there was some local favoritism going on there.. how could a southeastern Americana tv show car win over a VEHICLE MADE FAMOUS IN THERE OWN DAMN TOWN! DP should have won by a land/lava slide...

they should be ashamed of themselves for voting general lee..

Well to remedy this we need to have some one build the forest service truck for 2016!

Good job sir, looks rather nice too

 

[mrwilliamsburg33]

I second that notion!

Don't give me any bad ideas!!!

Esspecially when that would make a most excellent chase truck with a 8.1L / Allison under the hood...

New build thread coming to a town near you! :d

I pass a cclb srw with a utility bed every day I go to work. Its just sitting in this guys yard. Not sure of the year or if its a 4x4 (front axle is blocked from view) but that could be changed.

Plus coilovers and links... but then it wouldn't be movie realistic

 

[campfire]

It wouldn't be so bad, but it's gotten to the point that in most pictures icant tell which is the movie and which is real life. Which I Hess means good job Lawrence!

That, IMO, is the defining mark of a JOB WELL DONE! Congratulations on winning the town. Hope to see you back there for 2016. With the forest service truck.

So I was going through some pictures and screen caps tonight. Here is one for you. They took a Suburban off the frame! Notice no roof rack or lights on it as well as no decal on the door. So does this count as a fifth truck?

That would be cool to have the two of them together for 2016.

Yes; I am looking for a Canadian build with a diesel engine upgrade.

 

[kgblazerfive]

Notice that there is not a suspension on the trailer either.

 

[Metrodps]

So whats the chances of some one doing the CC truck?

 

[tRustyK5]

How much detail is there on the CC as far as stills and stuff?

 

[Metrodps]

Simple plane Jane. Brush guard hardest. Not to much detail shown in movie and most of the time it was inside shots except for the lava dance. Would definitely make a hit at the 20th and easy to do heck could even make it look like it went through lava. Heck it survived compared to this shot!

 

[tRustyK5]

Dammit, I had an '87 C30 Crew cab base model that would have been great for this. Had to send it to the crusher when we moved.

Anyways, gonna watch Dante's Peak right now.

 

[Russell]

The hardest part would be finding that exact service body. I would definitely be willing to build one of these though!

 

[Metrodps]

I think that shouldn't be to hard to find!
