I finally got my new UPS in the mail.

You know I'm gonna Mod this right?? It will be getting repainted and I'm gonna add a window or two or three.

Sleepy_Sentry · 27-May-06, 10:13 PM

Sweet man! Good luck on the mod! I can't wait to see the results.

I have an APC as well..........Maybe I should put a Window in it..........

TheGreatSatan · 31-May-06, 12:50 PM

I think it would be difficult if not nearly impossible to actually make it look like a Winnebago, so...

Should I just buy a winnebago and chop it up, then reassemble it around the UPS?

fhsfiremanco1 · 01-June-06, 03:47 PM

i think that would be really cool. but its your mod and if you think it is going to be that hard go with choping one up. and then you would have your windows and all.

Sounds like a plan.

Where would you get one of those anyways???

Boomer8450 · 01-June-06, 08:53 PM

If you chop the winny and fit the UPS in there, a fab some wings for the Spaceballs look, it could turn out really, really cool.
Don't forget the "I heart Uranus" bumpersticker.

TheGreatSatan · 01-June-06, 09:16 PM

I'll get it off ebay. I'll paint it to match, add wings and that bumper sticker!! Now to make one! Got to rent that movie.

TheGreatSatan · 16-June-06, 02:32 PM

I got the Winnebago in the mail. Till I need it, my kids will happily play with it.

djsnake · 18-June-06, 11:30 PM

I think Wally World has the DVD in their stores for $7.50 then you never have to rent it again. It's one of my favorite Mel Brooks films

jofultner · 18-June-06, 11:41 PM

If your child is like my grandkids they will take it apart for you,lol.Cute child TGS you have a great responsibility ahead,never regret not being there for them,Jo

She's one of two. My 6 year old loves it too.

jofultner · 21-June-06, 06:39 AM

Oh yeah 1st grader,great age.jo

TheGreatSatan · 25-June-06, 02:15 PM

I finally took some size comparison pics.

TheGreatSatan · 14-July-06, 12:05 PM

Alrighty let's get started. I gutted the Winnebago.

I opened the top.

And dropped in the UPS. It's a perfect fit as far as length and width, but height.....

When I measured it before I assumed that the height of the winnebago was the same on the inside as the outside. But I never really considered the bottom.

The inside is just 17cm

The UPS is 22cm

And the outside of the winnebago is 22cm....

I could fabricate some kind of shell with the wings attached that could go on top to cover the top of the winnebago. Or pull out the bottom and set it lower. What to do?

I rented the movie too.

You have the craziest ideas

and it's very interesting to see how you implement them.
