Zombie Assault Preparedness Vehicle or ZAPV

Before:

I had just bought the truck for 4k with just over 100k miles on it, was just going to be a daily driver but decided to make it a capable off road vehicle. Soon you will see the transformation of this truck into the ZAPV or Zombie Assault Preparedness Vehicle.

This is how I got the truck.

I decided to put bed liner on all of the plastic parts, and it looked good. At this point I thought I was done with the body (foolish me) I was going to settle for a good looking with minor capabilities truck.

I soon grew tiered of all the plastic wrapped around the truck, and the fact that the bed liner wasn’t sticking to it, so I pulled all of the plastic off and started over. I filled all of the holes left by the plastic with bondo or expanding insulation foam.

Bed lining was applied next. The whole truck was covered (including the rear wheel well). This didn't take as long as I thought it would.

And at last the Zombie Assault Preparedness Vehicle or ZAPV. It is the essential vehicle to use in case of a zombie outbreak, it can drive long distances, prevent rust, clime mountains, find high ground, and cover your sent from the brain eating *******s. This should not be your only plan in an zombie infestation, but you should always keep several options on the table. A vehicle would be the first step of a evacuation from an infected area. You would only want to use it to get out of a major city and make it to a relatively rural zone where you can take a high vantage point. Remember always be prepared.

EDIT: I don't have time to make rules and such for membership so if any one want to be in Team ZAPV just pick a number (except 1-3)

I would love to Ducey, that'd be fun. However, I may have to be selling my X :( Hopefully I am getting a job soon that will require an hour and half commute and the X just doesn't get good gas mileage :(
 






BUT- if I get this job, I will definitely be able to afford another X. I like the look of the 95's - the tough look, with the later models they have the tag on the back hatch - it looks newer but not a big fan of it :p
 






haha, yeah, sorry 2 stripe. half drunk posting owns me. team info is now up at www.nd500.com did a mini photoshoot, see what you think!
 












any word on the brother? can I link the zapv site? did another photoshoot. if I get time I'll get some pics on here
 






i just read from post 1 to the 25th page, and i have to say wow!!!!!!

although being Prepared is cool.. my idea that ive had for a few years, is eventually a ZPV (Zombie Patrol Vehicle) ....

im a big believer that yes Zombies could one day happen, it wouldnt be like what hollywood has instilled into our brain... it is possible although for a virus to make a person cannibalistic, and to make their flesh seem like its deteriorating and alter their state of mind....but yes it is really possible, all it takes is that one chemical to be created...

love the ideas and what not ive seen posted through out...
 













Heck yes Zombie Squad...I have been a member for a couple of years now.

Oh and if someone already asked this I am sorry but I got excited when I saw the Zombie Squad Link, I am preparing to Herculiner my Zombie-mobile and was just wondering how much bed liner it took you to cover the whole truck, and did you use spray or roll on.
 






Update on the X, SC is a distant project at this point, but i will happen -eventually- Engine was dropped in today!!! Straight pipe is gone got a Flowmaster 40 series, bumpers getting bedlined, 1.5" TT done and AAL done, and once I get it back I commence the 3" BL. I am finally making progress with the ZAPV!!! And come may getting my ZAPV13 tag!!!!
 






If ZAPV 90 isn't taken I would like to take #90, seeing as how my Zombie Squad fleet # is 0090. Gotta replace the drivers side door and the rear hatch on my Sport and then I will be Herculinering her, had 9 quarts of herc waiting to go on the truck for forever, just waiting on the doors. Then I gotta do something about the wimpy stock suspension :p:
 






get ZAPV plates while you can. I went to the dmv and had to be "grandfathered in" to get zapv 66 on my 66 mustang. the reasoning behind it? zombie is what a chick does when she is blinded by cum and is looking for a towel according to the urban dictionary. I now have 2 zapv's and need to figure out a 3rd # for my new 06 ford stx. the best part about today? I guarantee that I am the first to have ZAPV plates as pioneer plates! :woot: COLLECTOR PLATES FOR THOSE NOT FROM THE AREA. GODDAMNED CAPS. SORRY
 






Well today is my last day as a civilian, wish me luck. :salute:

See you guys in about 6 months
 






You got it, its nothing. All mind over matter. :) I am just waiting for the day I can say the opposite. :D

Good luck!
 






Good luck 2-stripe and thank you for your service for our freedom!
