You probably want to add a brush guard. The front of the car wouldn't survive many impact unless your snow plow idea was to cover the entire front end. Some kind of bars or steel mesh over the windows would be advisable. Shatter proof plexi is good but not against a horde. These could be welded in place or hinged. With a jacked up vehicle you want a skid plate. Don't want a zombie getting hung up in your undercarriage and crawling out in your sanctuary.

:flag2:


1. Painting it flat black ( for stealth...of course)
2. Adding a 4-6 Inch lift ( to hop curbs )
3. All terrain/Offroad suspension
4. Cutting a sun roof above my back seat (for gunner\ shot gunner)
5. Taking back seat out and converting it into a gunners chair
6. Add support on roof to mount .50 cal or assault rifles ( thinking maybe modify a luggage rack?)
7. Replacing all windows\windshield with non shatter plexi-glass.
8. Possibly reinforce steel frame
9.Cutting a Snow plow in the shape of my front spoiler and mounting it to my frame ( to plow through zombies like a weed eater.)
7. Cutting a 3X12" Hole or hinge in the end of my trunk for a gunner to lay in the trunk and cover the rear.




So Far, I have a plasti dip kit ordered to plasti dip my whole vehicle, so I got 1 down, 6 to go Pretty sure no ones ever added a lift to a camaro or added off road suspension so if anyone has ever seen this id love some pics. Also would like my tires to out set past my fenders like the bat mobile :S

My thoughts lean towards mobility. Speed and escape. Staying ahead of the horde would be paramount and instead of gun mounts I'd prefer grenade launchers to blow open a path.

Still working on the plan but motorcycles with highly skilled riders for scout missions and to run interference might be needed as well. I'm thinking strong and fast hit and run operations.

SS Brutal needs to get in here!

see THAT'S what I'm talking about! .
Definitely need the Skid plate, steel mesh wouldn't be bad idea either.
and Yea the snow plow is to cover whole front where my bumper is, might add a brush guard as well.
you're looking like you wanna be on the Zombie Response Team too

If you were doing this for cosmetic purposes I could see it. Going as far as beefing up the frame is stupid, just another honest opinion on the internet.

Mhm, Mhmm, I'm with you on the grenade launchers.
As far as your motorcycle scout idea, I saw a Sons of Guns where they modified a shotgun that could be reloaded and fired with one hand and created a custom mount that attached to the right handle bar of a chopper, it was wicked, might wanna work that into the scout's bikes.
