A few years back i saw in an FHM article a picture of a mini that had the bottom half of a monster truck (in proportion to the size of the body obviously) with the engine mounted in the middle with drive shafts going to front and rear wheels and i was just wondering if anyone here knows anything about it and if it could actualy drive

i only ask as i remembered it last night an thought to myself in a few years if its possible to do i would like to make one...for shows or something similar

Wasn't it on a Suzuki chassis? I think it was at Himley Hall.

i dont know it was years ago an magazine has since been chucked...it had that like miniture shocks and the straps to stop them from dropping too far if ever lifted off the ground and all that...seing as im a fan of mini's and monster jam i saw and got realy giddy.........so im hoping it can be done...and actualy drive..not to monster truck standards but not to the point where it struggles to move either

think there suzuki's with mini shells on top.
this one is a fave of mine.

same idea but it was alot higher off the ground than that..to the point you could see the drive shafts exiting from the middle

although in honesty that also looks cool, anyone know how its done?

I didn't look to see what's under these ... it was muddy and I'd just queued an hour for the showers
