Beta The bigger, badder Gambler Bolide (MfD Challenge) 0.5

Greetings,

I present you my humble entry to the MfD contest. This mod is somewhat rushed as I did not plan to participate at all and made this in the last week in hours I should have slept, but considering that, I think it turned out ok and the thing is a fun contraption.

What is it?

A Bolide rescued from the junkyard and made to work with some custom parts and parts from other cars.

It includes

• AWD Transaxle/Drivetrain complete with 3D model, sourced from an SBR
• Custom modified frame to fit the AWD stuff (by means of hammering)
• Custom built suspension with extra-long arms
• Extra thicc flares to suit the suspension
• Rusty skin (it's my first skin ever and it's not perfect)
• Rotated intake so it sits on the roof. (How do you open the tailgate? You don't). No fear of rivers!
• Cut tailgate to fit some stuff
• Tailgate mounted radiator for maximum cooling and not opening the tailgate
• Glass option without rear quarter windows
• Custom window exit exhaust
• Mega powerful front and rear lightbars that turn night into day
• Gambler Config with aforementioned parts
• TuttoTerreni Config, an early test of the Bolide's capabilities with the stock parts

All in all, these modifications make the Bolide a pretty capable off-roader, although not on the level of a crawler. If you want to make it even better I recommend you to equip wheels from an actual off-road vehicle, as the ones used in the config are road ones.

Known bugs and things to be improved

• Front side lamps flare misplaced
• Rear wide flares jbeam is not accordingly modified
• Exhaust jbeam is mediocre
• Intake jbeam is mediocre at best
• Skin is not perfect
• No rally tires for used Bolide wheels
• No AWD for normal suspension yet (plan to add)
• Roof racks, spare tires and such might be added later
• Wrong center of rotation for rear brake discs. Shh just don't look. I'll fix it soon.

Anyways, I still hope that you can still have a lot of fun with this car!
Thanks for taking a look
