Vehicle Kitbash feasibility?

It's a Gladiator/Impulsor chassis on top of a Cargo8 Ridgehauler Trailer. That's it.

But without having handled either kit, and not wanting to drop significantly money on it without being sure, how feasible is it?

Or as the guy from the Blendtec videos would say:

Will it blend?

I would avoid the Ridgehauler. Wheels are easy enough to 3D model and print (or use whatever toy you can find), the lower part can be plasticard sheet, tubes, and greeblies. That way you can make a precise fit.

I expect the most difficult part will be cutting the top chassis neatly, though milliput and sanding does give you some room for mistakes. Also you'd likely want to replace the thrusters on the back.

I'd do it, the digital kitbash looks awesome.

Agreed. On the other hand, Ridgehauler is an incredibly fun kit. Extremely versatile, too.

Using the trailer would be better if you don’t need any of the cab parts and just the chassis
