might take a bit of searching to find the right motor to do it though

I am interested if you are able to come up with something I would also consider making one
I have the motor figured out. I just need to decide what materials I want to make it to of. I'm thinking CF or Fiberglass louvers with an aluminum frame.

not bad but a good beater around the same price is either a pathfinder or 4runner very solid SUVs and will give you the versatility you will never get out of another "small/low" vehicle

IMO I would get something heavier and with more ground clearance

Used Nissan Pathfinder

4runner is a little harder to find and they tend to cost a little more for the good ones

Careful with those dryer vents, birds and squirrels are attracted to them..... Well at least my dryer vents are extremely appealing to them
