    If you think the car-makeovers on Pimp my Ride are good, wait 'till you see Bob Dullam's homemade Tumbler.

    Excellent! I always like these homebrew efforts but that's pretty damned awesome! Not cheap though, I wish I had £25,000-£35,000 to spend on a hobby!!!

    My father knows the guy who built the one used in the 2005 film, I think. IIRC he's a bloke called Greg. I daresay he'd be pretty appreciative of this bloke's efforts. Very good indeed.

    It looks good, but I can see a few dozen SVA fail points, so off-road only .

    the actual tumblers used in the movie cost about $500,000 each to make
    and millions of dollars in development, they made about 6 of them i think
