Kit Car Website wrote The Bummer comes from Tatonka Products—a Salt Lake City, Utah, group that has long specialized in building custom fiberglass molds for the industry. It isn’t clear from what deep, dark recess of owner Richard Tolbert’s mind the Bummer idea came, but Tatonka has sold nearly 120 Bummer kits during the past few years and shows no sign of slowing down. The utility-type bodies are designed for pickup and SUV chassis. Tolbert says it’s the ultimate way of recycling a truck that runs good and looks bad. The resemblance to the military Hum-vee is obvious, but the dimensions and proportions are completely different. The Bummer kit will fit most Chevy, Dodge, and Ford pickup chassis, as well as many full-size SUV chassis such as the Suburban, the Blazer, the Ramcharger, and the Bronco. Tatonka is currently working on a scaled-down kit to fit the GM S-10 chassis and other smaller trucks. Quoted from the Kit Car Website www.kitcarmag.com -- Last edit: 2007-08-01 05:49:37
