Man, just imagine a lifted VX02 rolling through red rock country. Oh how I wish they made that VX!!! I would DEFINITELY have 2 VXes had the produced it!
If I ever get down to LA, I'm gonna have to figure out how to see this VX!

More pics???
Super VXer
was gonna post more, but Gene's pics came out so much better! I just spoke with ASC Global who also bid against IDC to make the VX-O2. They said that with all that was done, if GAS or Metal Crafters can get close to $100k, that would be a great deal. ASC can put an actual working rag top under the tonneau cover should we ever make one of these.
GAS so far seems to have offered the best deal. Not only the Tonneau cover and support, but also:
- add roll bars
- hydrolics to open the cover
- cut the windshield
- new mirrors
- dual exhaust
- cut b-pillar
- new rims and tires
- new sound system to be revealed under the cover
- new seats that are as low as possible so you can see under the windshield
- lower suspension by 1 inch (optional for better wind dynamics)
- repainted to whatever color we want.
$80K. I'm actually thinking it's a pretty good deal.
Call me a geek, or maybe even nerd, but face the facts, we da ones be rulin' this world!

What is up with the shift indicator???
If there's ever a next time someone needs to get underside / underhood pics.
Super VXer
Sounds like it was a blast...Got a question..Did any of you look or better yet take pic's of the underside of the VX02 to see if any extra support was added do to the top being removed??

In the back , under the "cover" there was some very light weight , "ugly" angle iron bracing. Unfinished metal,rough f/glass work.
The general consensus was that this had been built as a "show" rather than "Go" vehicle.
In order to make this road friendly , IMO , additional bracing/cage work would be required to hold it all together.
As it stands , road vibration/torque stress/braking forces , would shake it apart/open it up.
Maybe thats why its only got some 250 miles on it!
