ic.. brand new po? kung brandnew.. baka po maging masyado mahal yang mga nasa plans natin..
not to mention..
mas panget ang finish...
since hindi po siya mass production...
we will be purchasing parts in retail... unlike car plants na in bulk or sometimes sila pa mismo nagmamanufacture...
were better off with low end auv or vans.. like L300s

siguro po magiging mas reasonable.. if we use..surplus chasis/suspension/engine
like yung AMC hammer.. but instead of using an expensive patrol as donor po..
we can use light utility trucks
like sa isuzu elf... canter... etc etc
bali parang jeep na minimalist ang kalalabasan... wala na yung heavy extension bumpers
kung possible mas maikli ang hood.. para mas konti ang space na kakainin sa daan.. as much as possible built with lighter materials like fiberglass.. bawasan kung saan hindi kailangan... para hindi din matakaw sa gasolina?

as a start lang naman po.. if after the 1st project.. u guys think your ready to build a vehicle from ground up? then atleast may experience na...

although i think building it ground up.. especially with those curved windshields po, fancy headlights and ***y fenders would not be cost effective.. kung gagamitin lang po sila as public transport...
for that.. maybe you would like to start a new thread.. siguro.. building a custom tsikot... para hindi sayang yung very nice designs and ideas..
