By this, do you mean we can use some mods? I'd only be using stuff from the High Quality Essentials pack, and wouldn't use any of the bodies that come with that pack.

You can use the lights and stuff just not the bodys
Hope I answered your question

BTW tell me which mods you are going to use

Excellent. I'll do my best to stick to vanilla fixtures to save you the hassle.

Presenting the 1982 Bogliq Courier!!!



Cheap, cheerful and reliable - buy a Bogliq today!!!

FYI if anyone wants a little different of a car there are 2 eligible mini truck bodies and 1 eligible van body. (That's why the year is 1982 so the jeep-like one is eligible too!)

Working on something, and having fun doing so.

More than that, actually...



**NOTE: this is NOT the vehicle I am entering the contest with. This was an exercise to see if a larger ute body could meet all of the design requirements of the competition. And it did, pretty easily too.

Only pickups and ute's?

No you in theroy you could use any car but another good choice would be the 70's land rover/jeep body has a van back (kinda like a mail truck)

The 1982 H.A. 55 P is the perfect utility vehicle for you... if your budget is below $7000. It has 4 wheels, 2 seats, seatbelts, headlights and tail lights, side windows that open and close, and not much more! It runs on a tiny inline 4 that can eventually reach highway speeds. Get yours today! Guaranteed to rust away so you'll have a reason to get a new car in a few years!

I guess toe only problem with that is it fits the requirements but it is not practical and probably not compete well but would certainly win most cargo space

Completely off topic you have a '99 A4? Cool, my dad just got rid of his he bought brand new. I really like those for some odd reason, guess I am not entirely normal but who is on this forum?

I have an unusual love for the 1983 Toyota Tercel 4wd wagon. I agree that everyone here seems to have quirky tastes in cars
