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.

that's strange. is the album public? you could post a link to it
 


















I actually really like it
 






so does it fit for the group, or do I have to find some where else. I do have a light bar lined up, custom front and rear bumpers, and a custom 3" lift, but just got the little thing a few months ago and dubbed "Green Gremlin? what else would you all do with that little thing?

I think you listed everything I would do with one

I say yes. Especially seeing as how there is a mustang on the list and a got-dang bus :D.
 






so can I call ZAPU 411 if no one has it. I need it for the rest of the decals that I am getting for mine.

Yup its all you and its modified on the list on page 36
 






very nice, so the next thing is, is there anyone near or even in el paso tx area thats on the team, and are there deecals that we can order or patchs? I am going for 100% orignail and got the acuus and evering to do it. so if you are out there let me know.:salute::usa:
 






and that's where I run out of info. I went through 30+ pages to compile the list, didn't pay much attention to where people were located
 






So Lets see if we can add to the list, Maybe even add a location to the list and see if we can get some meets going and I can see what I can do about talking to a guy about decals. He aint that bad for pricing and hes fat with them. I can help take charge if no one in here wants to just got to know info and everything to get this thing jump started and everything else. so new upto dte list like you ha before with locations, and lets try to get some pics going. does that sound like a plan?
