Does anyone know if you can mount the deck gun off of the old original VAMP on the back of either the Cobra Stinger jeep or the VAMP Mk2 desert jeep?
I always thought the gun looked a lot cooler than the missiles on the back of the jeeps, that and I think the black jeep would look way cool with the VAMP's turret on the back of it. Thanks - Eric |

I'm sure you can, but you will probably have to take the roof off as I think that gets in the way of the gun (I haven't tried it yet though)

Holy crap!!! That is cool looking. I never saw that version before ever. I know of the crimson Mobat version but man I would have loved to have that as a kid and today too.

The hole in the back of the Vamp and the Stinger are exactly the same.. so the gun can fit in both. The same goes for the Vamp Mk2 since it was just a repainted vamp.
Now after seeing this though.. I will definitly have to take the missles off one of my vamps and switch it out with a stinger missle system. Then dig out one of my MMS systems and paint it black.

Cool! Now all I have to do is find two spare guns, one for my VAMP Mk 2, and one for my Stinger!
Anyone got any ideas where I can find one? Other than E-bay or cannibalizing a perfectly good VAMP that is incomplete just to get the gun :( ? Thanks - Eric |

Ok, well after 2 days of hunting and some odd $___.__ dollars later (trust me, you don't want to know how much! ) I now have every thing I need on the way to build all three of my VAMP/Stingers with the cannons on the rear in place of the missiles.
I know, not really that much of a custom, and I don't really want to paint them up either as I want to keep the stock appearance of their colors, but I think they ought to look pretty cool either way. I also picked up a '93 v4 Duke - http://www.yojoe.com/action/93/duke4.shtml and a v1 Dusty to go with the VAMP Mk2, so they should look pretty cool with it too. I did have to pick up one partial VAMP (green) to complete this though, so when all is done and said I'll have a least the guts of one VAMP to try and customize a little bit with. I play around with the colors on that one some and see what I come up with. Everthing should be here sometime next week, so I'll update with pics once my VAMP used car lot is in place. Thanks - Eric |
