Anyone interested in this should check out superfastmatt (YouTube) he has a video series where he converts a Dodge Viper for offroading.

Not bolting a viper body onto a dune buggy frame.

It's such an incredibly scuffed build, though. Matt is a madman.

He shoved a ham sandwich and a bunch of other shit in a carbon fiber mold to make a point about arbitrary it is what you put in them (and I think he was running low on chopped carbon tow), then he had to dig out the sandwich later and fix it because that one was too much.

That wasn't for the Dodge, though. That was for a custom built salt flats speeder. Fucking wild dude.
