As I continue building smaller vehicles I decided to do another Swamp Masher. For this one I wanted to legitimize it as a believable looking Cobra vehicle. It has Awe Striker wheels, ferret gun a light from the MCC and a Snow Cat steering wheel. The front wheels are wider than the back but I thought it looked cool that way. Thought it would be fun to do a poll so vote for your favorite. Sorry for not cleaning the dust off the original.

Cobra definitely has them beat in the color department. Swamp Masher looks better suited to being a Nok Vehicle.

Looks good.
Looking at this reminds me of the VW dune buggies from the 70's. If I ever end up with a scrap Swamp Smasher you have inspired me to make it into one of those Dune buggies.

It has that feel for sure. I tried to build a roll cage but I gave up on it. Might revisit that idea.

To truly be like a VW dune buggy you would need fenders, Roll cage would be cool but is optional.

Custom wins by a land slide. Never liked they orginal at all. The color change and and 4 wheel drive train makes it 100% cooler in my book. Nice work man!!!

While I really love this custom. I've always had a real soft spot in my heart for the original. I had it as a child and about wore it out...lol

I've seen the original repainted in realistic colors and it looks fantastic. I love your update but i like the original design.... A major part of what makes joe fun is, it's NOT so realistic... ;)
