Meat Wagon II

Our second attempt at a paintball tank, this couldn't have been done without help from Tuttles Foreign Car Parts in Lake Havasu, Custom Covers in Lake Havasu, Hilton El Conquistador Tucson, and the hard work and resources of our families and friends.

Ready To Roar
The finishing touches going on to the Meat Wagon as we prepare to roar out of the VooDoo Garage

Where it all Began
Starting life as a banquet delivery cart from El Conquistador Hilton, we didn't even know if this baby would run when we pushed it off the trailer.

Choppin' Time
After a carberateur rebuild we threw it on the lift and started chopping pieces off - side doors, back door, front cab - all excess material in our design.

Off Road Power
Then we started adding the goodies - like offroad shock absorbers to make our ride gentle, gentle, gentle.

Piling on the Weight
A front roll cage with gun port and visors seemed like a good idea.

Procurements!
Front windshield, side sheathing and a flashing beacon bring the Meat Wagon's Profile to life.

Mojo Daddy!
Rear assault door with a captive welder/race car driver are essentials on any good ambulance.

Mud Boggin'
First tests prove it - she runs! Notice the added side gun ports and side mirrors.

Yo Sparky!
Interior electronics hold up. What you can't hear is the air raid siren also wired under the skirting.

Damn the Torpedos!
Forward fire power is assured with a discount CV boot (and a passenger with a long barrel).

Land Ahoy!
Top hatches in both the front and rear cabs give not only visibility, but a way to launch rockets, grenades, and epithets.

Lab Testing
Our quality and safety engineers give the Meat Wagon II a final look over before its maiden voyage.

Eeep!
Can't call that a maiden anymore.

The Horror
They rained paint on us until every pod was empty, but still we rolled on.

Infantry and Armor
Voodoo always has the final word.
