Offroad GM van?: afraid of heights edition

[tsroark]

First, I have complete faith that this will look horrible. But it will be quick and different. I acquired this GM van body through ebay for a few bucks. I bought it because it is not a commonly seen vehicle model and it was cheap. It is extremely rough, the body is filled with expansion foam and is a very thin casting so I'm not sure anything serious can be done.

It is going to be an extreme off-road lowrider. Yes, it has 44" tires and will be equipped with every off-road accessory I can think of and fit. But the owner is extremely afraid of heights so it sits 10" off the ground. The fenders will have to be cut almost to the windshield just to tuck the tires under. Depending on how it looks I might add in some lowrider and tuner design ques with some kind of wide body fender flares and body kit for even more ridiculousness. On to the pictures

Tires will be between the desert dogs or the much larger swampers. Have to wait until i have the wheel wells cut out, but I am leaning towards the swampers. Because why not.

If it cant be overdone then why do it at all

The body is cast filled with foam and I don't have the patience to remove it, so chassis detail will be down to axles and skid plates.

I'm digging this. I've been wanting to do something like this for years but never got around to getting anything to make it happen
