ok^^; I'm going as Hakkai from Saiyuki fro ANime convention,and I was wondering if ti was a good idea to paint a body and make it look like a jeep,cut the bottom and top out,and get in,and walk around with it,and pretend you're in a jeep:P

I remember doing that as a kid, IM me if you want pointers.

Use suspenders to hold the box on your body.

add real car stuff like mirrors and small lights to make it look cuter, yet giveing off the effect of "This is a Frick'n vehicle, so don't ask!" if it somehow becomes a disaster; but I highly doubt that.

An extremely bright flashlight.

Me and a friend could see the reflection of a "STOP" sign, 2 miles away.

Add mirrors, that's a nice touch
