Chicken Storm chaser 👍

a friend of mine sent this in a discord server im in and said he got it from another friend of his, looks like a doghouse type of thing

Took like a couple days to make this lmao

TIV 1 - my sentimental favorite; the vehicle that first got me into storm chasing and a beauty and a badass all rolled into one, easily the best-looking interceptor ever and I eagerly await her return

Titus - second coolest interceptor ever made even if it was technically just a movie prop; it's still a real truck that can drive

Dominator 3 - a fellow Ford, gull wing doors, consistently gets the best tornado intercept footage thanks to Reed Timmer being Reed Timmer, and an extremely versatile vehicle with its rocket launcher and fast deployment; it's done me very well in Twisted due to this, so for that it holds a very dear place in my heart

TIV 2 - easily the greatest interceptor ever built, nothing I really have to say here

Dorothy - I just love this van lol yet another Ford and also has gull wing doors, really wish it got to be used to its full potential

Tornado Attack - an absolute beast: 800+ horsepower, a roaring V8, unrivalled off-road abilities, and the one that started it all; super cool

Dominator 1 - I have a soft spot for the little red shoe lol

Dominator 2 - a good build that sadly still gets the middle child treatment even from me lol

UTAV - WUUUUTAVVVV!!! a solid build that got the job done without as much fuss compared to its more famous counterparts; I have the utmost respect for it

Titan - not done yet, technically not classed as a full-on interceptor either by the lad himself, but having followed along from Day 1 (as have most of you here), I've grown quite fond of it and am rooting for it to do well when complete; plus it's surprisingly good-looking

Armadillo - could be a GOAT but to me is just D1 on steroids; nothing wrong with it, absolute beast in its own right with that screaming engine plus spikes, but yeah

Tornado Puncher - love the concept, just wish it was better executed lol

I'm new to the whole tornado thing, but I'm really interested in making one tiv out of cardboard.

And basically, to make this chassis, I used the exact model of the car used to make the TIV 2 as a base, I converted the meters to up to 30cm, and that's what I got, I also managed to get a rough estimate of the wheel axle distance.

But i think is very nice for my fist Tiv by the away.

found this on Extreme Tornado Tours Facebook page, and it’s amazing what you can find on Facebook, all sorts of interceptors from back in the days to present, Credits To Extreme Tornado Tours.
