There was quite a bit of modding done. The car was originally a regular R/C car that we had to gut, move around parts, cut out other parts, install support, mounting points, and other junk. We didn't just stick some parts in there and that was it. The entire project took 3 months to complete. What is different from cutting out and painting parts on an R/C car compared to cutting out and painting computer cases?

Thanks for the info....

OK....I admit my mistake.....I thought the car was just hollow and you just placed parts inside of it.
Super nice job.....Like I already said...it was very original.

hmmmmmm......you're not hammering the guy but rather our site !! sour grapes ??

Congrats to the winner. Nice job !!

It was a pritty tough choice. there were lots of Awsome "mods". and some Great destruction :D :D . but this one was jsut above and beyond the traditional Case idea. sure we had Garbage cans, and file drawers and even a Book bag. but all of them are pritty much just a standuard box with a cut out. this one was jsut totally new and fully funcional. if the garbage can was still a fully funcional garbage can...well U know what I mean. ;)

hell it was a good fun contest and we had LOTS of good entries. Granted the scipt would not alow any more entries cause of a BUG but Ahh well. :(

there wil lbe a different contest eventually.
