[wetamup2k3g]

Nice! Question: can you notch the roof out to bring the liftgate closer to the clamped-in crossmember in an effort to maximize your bed length or is that a bad idea? Great creativity Q!

A Galant Ute? I like where this is going...

Then again, I'm a sucker for Holden Maloos, especially the HSV models. :D

[unclepaulie]

do you guys have the VE utes over there now? or just sedans?

[G-spot]

Freaking awesome!

[99galantES]

I like can't wait till it's done

[RedGalant2k1]

do you guys have the VE utes over there now? or just sedans?

The newest 'ute' here would be a Subaru Brat.

[evil-G-nius]

this will be pure sex...especially if you pull it off to look like that photochop. Awesome job

[djhah]

Its not something i would see at a car lot and say "i have to get that" , but as a project i would love it looks like it will be fun. Can't wait to see the finished product!

[beam514]

dang this is going to be awesome lol

[qcustoms]

yes the rear x member you see in the cabin IS where it is going to be so it wil lmaximise the bin size,BUT this is not going to be a daily driver,it will stay garaged up and only come out on weekend trips or sunny days,the rest of the time it will be in shows and under cover... the rear bin wil lhave a Fibreglass Cover made for it,the rear end style we are going for is the Holden Maloo Look of the new 2010 style so it wil lslant off to the rear etc..

further im closing off the taillight holes and mounting Evo X LED Taillights in it..
later in life i aim to weld on a Evo X Half Cut wich i already have sitting in my workshop.

got the lights on my watchlist on ebay already....

comments and suggestions welcome..

Wheels are going to kill me as i do not know!!!

im widening the rear and the front aswell with Steel Skins i removed form an old wreck

[RedGalant2k1]

My only suggestion is sell someone in the USA you rear wagon section that was removed...lol

[qcustoms]

lol why? i have said it before and wil say it again, im happy to strip and ship a Legnum vr4 wago nto whomever wants 1,at their cost,and if they pay ill even travel over and reassemble it for them,,auto to manual conversion takes me 2 days max,thats engine out engine in aswell

[finald8ta]

im sry butt im drunk as fooock, butt danm that is gona look sexy as hell , cant wait to see it finished

[qcustoms]

lol

[The Vee]

Didn't know you'd actually got this far Q. That is going to be awesome when its done. Love the way you are using the Leggie tailgate. Come on, hurry up and finish it we want more pics!

[qcustoms]

thanx bud yea im sure over the years youv come to know i dont waste time lol,im the only 1 that actually does and completes something he says he is going to do lol, like a VR-M Legnum etc lol...

yea the good ole tailgate.... dont know what im gonna do bout the bottom half just yet, as we will weld that piece in the rear well to close the bin up

[r1concepts]

I am excited to see the finish product! Cant wait to see updated photos of it! Keep it up!

[Blue8g]

This is already the coolest car in the history of TGC.

[Xionation]

This is truly an amazing build. I friend out mine is working on Civic EF Ute. I can't wait to see it finished. Any updates?:orangesmilewinkgrin

[Stewi]

I like this alot. cant wait to see it completed

[E_Emerson88]

what side skirts are those in the picture? also, is that a vouge lip?

[qcustoms]

ok here we have the part we need to carry on.
this gives us the 8* we need to pull off the tight drop for the cabin,rather than the legnu mbootlid with a near 30* angle

now with this here we can now move forward on the design and aims for the unveiling at the 4 & Rotory in March 2012 its looking good

[99 galant]

i think i'll have to see the final product, but this feels like its going to look like the F-150 with a mustang front

[eclipsh]

This looks seriously bad-ass. Are you going FWD, RWD or AWD? Engine? Totally digging this build.

I actually like the hatch as a rear panel better myself. I think the extra interior space would make for a cool speaker shelf or storage bin or some combo thereof.

[qcustoms]

thanx guys,it is going to be AFAIK the worlds ONLY 4WD Twin Turbo Ute,2.5 v6.

note that we are only really using the rear cabin part not the entire well ..
and nce the chop is welded in youl lbe amzed at the shelf space there wil lstill be behind there

[Blue8g]

Fuuuuuu

This is going to be so epic. What is the bed off of? I'm reminded on a Maloo

[Laidback8g]

This is gonna be interesting, has anyone tried a convertible 8g?

[Redhaze]

This is gonna be interesting, has anyone tried a convertible 8g?

Been done there pictures if you search around the forums

[qcustoms]

well we have VERY good progress so far this week and the way things are looking it seems we may be done sooner than expected

enjoy

ps take note of the shot of the ute halfcut with the side cutout.. its merly a sedan chassis.. this believe it or not makes our job so so much easier

This. Is. Awesome.

What's your plan for sealing off the rear doors?

[oakrdrs187]

How have I not seen this, very sweet!! Subscribed.

[qcustoms]

Properly lol

[qcustoms]

ok heres the shape... im sure you can see where im heading with the design now..
its been a long road and well worth it,it is basically done now, just the capping and tailgate and few bits wich will happen after new years so these will pretty much be the last images for the year as we tie up jobs for the year

enjoy guys,im loving it.. whatta dream actually building something i said i am rather than just been a bag of wind and tlking bout it ey:hatepeople:

Wait jdm G's get a speaker in the rear doors?

[Samman]

Wait jdm G's get a speaker in the rear doors?

Nope

Amazing Work !!

[Skyforger]

Best thread on TGC.

[qcustoms]

Factory they don't but the provision to fit the legnum pods are there and so you can run 6-11,speaker setup lol

[keith6110]

Wait jdm G's get a speaker in the rear doors?

Pop off your USDM rear door panel. You'll see it looks like there should have been speakers in the doors.

[oakrdrs187]

Sweet I might get some now.

[mrg7243]

What you you have to run as far as wiring wise for rear door speakers?

[qcustoms]

Tap into the rear speaker wiring or if ampd just run new wires. I can supply you the pods if you need them and the galant door cards with the grill in them or you can mod yours

[qcustoms]

Ok back to body again.
heres some updates.
i sculpted it from clay so I can see if what I invisioned will work and this is what I pictured.
what are your thoughts ??
i didn't want it to remain flat and flush like factory holden as I feel it took the aggression away and by doing this I give it more of a pumped shoulder effect.

If you flare the front and rear fenders with some nice wide tires it will complete that look nicely. Great work. I can't wait to see what it looks like cleaned up.

Yes I'm making 30mm widened front guards and then I have the rear skins if I choose to make the rears wider too

Super bad a man!

Keep up the good work, can't wait to see this finished.

[qcustoms]

Ok so I've been lucky enough to spend a week on it and 90% was spent on welding,welding and more welding..

i can lightly say that the body is all done. YES ALL DONE!
just traling left to do..
the widened guards sit a massive 50mm further out than the stock guard and clears a 255/45/18 with a 9.5" rim on a red offset without rolled guards.

if I want to roll the guards I can go bigger again and I can go super low as well with raised inner guard that I did too.
so now the shaping can take place and then the sailplane ..

[djhah]

still every up date you impress me more. i would have never thought to flare the fenders that way, great progress as always.

[qcustoms]

Updates time boys....

unfortunately images are jumbled and not in order. Sorry......
I thought I'd inform you all a little bit of behind the scenes I go regarding this project..
whilst you see all the forward progress you DONT see the rejected progress that is involved.

just to give you a quick insight into the sale plane and wing production, it started off with a shape in my head, so I apply foam to use and sculpt it to my liking.BUT the foam failed to work in favour.

next I then clearing my head ,thought of the word "Legnum" and a light came on. And I took the wing of my work hack Legnum
http://i1178.photobucket.com/albums/x370/vr4wgn/d284eb01f78033705e96634382e20a55_zpsb79f70f5.jpg

so I started chopping it up and pasting to see and get it to work.. But nope wasn't working good enough for me..

scratch head and start again. PAPER out and scissors(back to basics)
and remembering what I Invisioned whilst with failure attempt 2

and we have this!!!

If you look close enough you will see the back quarter light window shape in the quarter windows..

The side capping slots into the wing wich you can't see until I disassemble and weld up so basically I had to double skin everything round the wing.

the wing will bolt to the bulkhead
the side capping will bolt to the wing on the inside faces of the capping.
aswell as on the inside faces of the body areas.
so I can remove the capping and wing to replace or remove all windows
