I’ve always wanted a Stinger Truck do I decided to make one. I modified the back into a truck bed with opening tailgate. I had to use two vamps to recreate the stock lines from the original design, I didn’t want it to look super obvious it was extended. To make it more convincing as a front engine vehicle I created an entire new engine hood and front grill I call the power bulge hood.
It’s lifted and has larger wheels with rubber tires, a working winch, off road bumpers and a ton of extra accessories.
You can see some of my design ideas in the pictures, my first idea was to have a removable canopy. I also tried a few different places for the antennas and mirrors.
Included is a custom. Battlefield Devastator and painted Ram.

Evergreen Styrene sheet plastic.
Not sure what the winch is from, some Walmart toy I think.

I really like the red rims here. I mean, the rest is your typical excellence, but the red rims really makes it pop.

The bed extension is so subtle that you'd almost miss it. That's the kind of detail that you put into your work that makes them flawless.

Another great piece.

When I saw on Facebook, it took me a while to understand what you’d done. The construction photos are great as is this. One of my favorite customs of yours for sure.

Phenomenal job, love this idea. The stinger body works surprisingly well as a truck.

Another beautiful custom vehicle!
I bet those ARAH ladies in black and red (convention?) look great on it.

Edit, I meant these:

I think the roll bar in the back makes the bed look even shorter. Your right, I don’t think most people realize what I’ve done.
Thanks, it’s my new favourite also.

Ha ha yes they would, I have a bunch of those too, I should have used them. I was going to make an actual driver for it, I probably will at some point.

I think it’s the roll cage in the back that makes it look that way. It took a lot of work to join the two halves together and make it look natural.

Yes it is. This was one of my more complicated builds but not a lot of people will notice all the work.
You should definitely try it.
