    Vr4 ute

    Was trawling through the Internet and found some photos of a VR4 Ute.
    Is this the one VR4WGN was making??, or has someone else done this one?,

    Looks good.
    ( looks like you have to move the tail light to open the rear!)

    I'm guessing it's not much lighter than the standard Legnum! After strengthening etc? But I dupes the weight of the glass in the rear 5 Windows has gone and the metal roof and strengthen parts for tailgate etc are all gone?.
    It looks great.

    I've gotta be honest and say that it looks great! If it's structurally sound, no idea, I haven't seen any specific strenghtening but maybe I've either missed those updates or they were not reported. Would be very odd to just hope it would be strong enough after dismantling it in such a way.

    If I recall correctly he did do it all properly and had spoken to the wof! (Mot) people about what was required by them.
    I was just meaning, I wonder if it is much lighter that a Legnum, as you get a much better power to weight etc with emptied out with no interior etc cars.
    If this is his??.
