4x4 Charger


I really like the Dodge Charger. Here's one on a 4x4 chassis. It always intrigues me when people put normal cars on a 4x4 chassis. The one I've always wanted to see is a Jaguar XJ6 on Discovery chassis. It has been done but mostly as monster truck style things. I think at one point I worked out you'd have to extend the Land Rover chassis by 13", but the width of the axles would be about right. Yes, the resulting vehicle would be ludicrously heavy, probably need special suspension to not handle like a barge, and would have to have a powerful V8 to even move, but it would certainly have presence.

One bizarre thing I once encountered was an XJ6 that had been converted into an extended six wheeled pickup. It was even for sale.
