| Its not the prettiest, but we could make it into a technical (1 driver, 1 heavy gunner in the back) or a troop hauler, maybe a portable objective (mobile missile site, ambulance, VIP truck, etc) Let me know what you guys think... | |

| Maybe we should do a fund raising event to get this? If other people were pitching in and this was functioning, I'd throw in some cash for it.
Would be great to build a argos or mini tank or troop transport. This is cool. |

| I'd be worried about it getting stuck. Skinny wheels and a bay of batteries to weigh it down. I'm looking into one of those lifted hunting carts that runs on gas today. | |

| $600.00 for the cart.
A game with 60 people
$60 x 10.00 entrance fee = $600.00
Sounds like a good fundraiser to me. :-) | |

| Or, you know, you could just divide people into two teams and let them go at each other for ten bucks as a fund raiser. You don't have to put that much effort into EVERY game. | |

| I know you won't only get 60 people... Not after the last game at least. Hopefully you'll get the 90 people as before and make $900.00.
This is of course if everyone pays this time around. :-/
You can't call me cheap! At least I paid! :-D
600 for the cart, 300 to split among those of you planning. Last time we talked I thought the consensus was that money made was mostly for improvement to the field anyhow. I didn't think anyone was in this to make money, just to improve the airsoft community.

| I'll donate $75. Is this a fiberglass body? Where will we store it? How can we transport it? What are the dimensions of this? | |

| thanks eric. I think fireman is right. we are going to do as he says, we have decided each game from now on will be a minimum of 25 to 39 dollars charge per player so we use the excess money to buy this unit. fireman you teach me how to be a good business man !!! gracias! | |

| Your such a kidder! This cart sounds good then. If we do get it I'd say come up with a couple of different structure ideas we can throw on it and how they can all share the same bolt patterns so we can get multiple vehicles in one depending on the scenario.
The only other concern I have is the maneuverability on the field like Charlie said. It should be fine up and down the main road leading to the south base and could possibly make a turn into the tree farm area to patrol in there.
This would be awesome as an APC with a turret on the roof.
Think we could get it for $500 if we show up with cash?
TOTAL CONTRIBUTIONS = $175.00 | |

| And if Panthers truck could somehow manuver through the field, I think that thing can. | |

| LOL, I've seen your painting and that's absolutely fine by me! You may have to argue that position with the others though! I think it would be a fantastic idea to stencil somewhere on it the names of those who contribute in whatever way to the beast. | |
