I saw on a tv show a few years back that they did just that, took a Wagoneer and removed the plastic grille and modified the headlight bezels to make it look the the Gladiator, which in my opinion is MUCH better looking.
Thank you all very much for your help. I don't really have anything in particular in mind but it's cool just to see whats out there and how I can use it you know?
I saw the movie and a short video on the cars. The black dual axle could actually smoke both axles in a burnout. And they built a Buick GNX with the engine in the trunk and the rear axle driving the front wheels so they could make it look like it was driving incredibly fast in reverse.
