What's the story on the shifter? You got an Xbox in there too?

No, no Xbox in there. That's a real B-8 grip from a jet fighter. Most US jet fighters used that type from the 50's until just recently. The piece it sits on is a force transducer from an F-4 Phantom. Which happens to be my fav aircraft. The machined piece under that, was made in a machine shop which attaches everything to the tranny.

Is that paint real or photoshopped? How did you do the digi-camo? Must have been real time consuming if real. We don't even do that on our military vehicles yet...

Yeah it's real, and it did take a long time. I used stencils from a place that makes them for guns. they just made the pixels 3 times bigger. I almost did Viet Nam camo which would've been much easier, but I wanted something more modern.

It's so fitting that you called a Montero (or Raider) an F-4. After all, wasn't that the plane that proved you could fly a brick with enough horsepower? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Thanks man, more and more turbo conversions are being done, so mine won't be that unique down here after long. So far it's the only Raider that I know of but a few D-50's have been converted. This puts it at a point no one is going to want to do lol.
