Lately I have made some pretty good headway and and am getting close to being finished with the design.<br>It will be a 4 seater full tube frame, Chevy LS powered 4 Wheel Drive, off road exploration vehicle, a little bit of a crawler, a little bit of a overland vehicle, so a &#8220;Overcrawling&#8221; rig.<br>I am getting close to having the design done and hopefully to a point I can start bending tube and welding it up. This is a fairly good sized project to do on your &#8220;Spare Time&#8221; so it will undoubtedly take some time, but I&#8217;m hoping for the summer of 2022 to be done with it.<br>If you are a off-roader\/four wheeler\/overlander\/fabricator\/builder\/designer or experience in this sort of vehicle, I welcome any input on what could be changed or Look out for or input\/help, I have never designed a vehicle or build one for that matter from scratch, but I&#8217;m making it happen.<br>Let me know what you think.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped
