Not sure how many of you frequent /pol/, but theres been a lot of talk about how there going to be a big economic crash in September, leading to the Depression 2.0. I guess my question is what would be the best vehicle and/or mods to survive a societal breakdown?

1960-72 halfton with an I6 running on alcohol, that being said, most pre-OBDII vehicles would do fine provided you can feed them. spare parts are the issue, stockpile gasket material, oil, clutches, radiators, tires, oil, hose pipes. oil, air filters, u-joints, oil, diff fluid, ATF if its a slushbox, oil, oil filters, carb rebuild kits, fuel injectors, control units, automotive relays, oil

did I mention oil?

I think you're forgetting about stockpiling oil.

>>5873

Why i6, instead of a small V8?

You want something that's:

>tough

>quick enough to get out of any immediate danger

>well equipped

>reliable

>at the very least decent on gas

So basically the Interceptor from Mad Max.

If you got a whole host of people to protect though, steal a police/special forces/bank van

>>5883

smother running, better efficiency, and I6 especially slant 6s are better for converting to alcohol

>smother

smoother

You also need the following to ensure you don't get stranded in the middle of nowhere:

>At least 2 spare tires, run-flat if you can get them.

>Roof-mounted lights if your headlights ever stop functioning or you need better sight at night. Get a night-vision camera if you can too, especially if you need to go stealth for whatever reason.

>CB Radio, self explanatory really

>Bullbars to protect from impacts

>Spare gas tank, or at the very least a can which is always filled in the trunk or wherever

>A handful of flares if you ever need help

And don't forget to stockpile a shitton of components which would be impossible to get once the happening commences, like batteries, oil, shock absorbers if you live in a hilly or bumpy area (my old Legacy used to chew through a whole set every 3 months when I lived in the mountains), clutches, solenoid, replacement bulbs and of course, gas/diesel.

A handful of old Volvo estates, and as many spare parts as you can get hold of.

this

/pol/ is basically the containment board where the edgy newfags go to sperg out until they figure out that saying nigger on the internet isnt a new thing and nobody gives a shit except tumblrinas and SJWs

the ironic part is that stormfags and SJWs behave and argue nearly the same way

245 with a B230 /thread

On topic:

>Subaru Justy 1.2 4WD MPFI

>External roll cage

>weld rear diff for more grip when using 4WD

>convert to alochol

>build ghetto turbo engine for more than 73 hp

>in case of shit gas: open wastegate for no tarbo pressure

>store two or three other scrapped Justys in a safe place for parts

Or a more probable idea:

>find Opel Corsa B 1.7 TD

>strip out interior

>install roll cage and snow plow in front

>add oil cooler to engine and trans

>find way to protect Isuzu 1.7TD engine from external trauma like bullets

>do the white ring and tarbo pressure mod for 110 hp+

>be careful not to ruin the F17 trans because high Nm kills it apparently

>weld 5mm steel plates in rear windows for bullet resistance

>protect gas tank


1d90d1 No.5976

>>5975

5MM mild steel wont do much to protect you from basically any ammunition except maybe .22

you can get used chest sized SAPI body armor plates for $70-100 if you look around that are much stronger, that you could embed in the doors and along the back of the seats that would be much more effective

also my vote for a vehicle would be any 99+ 4.8 or 5.3 GM truck or SUV and just store a large amount of gas ahead of time, along with fuel stabilizers

>>market has crashed

at best an insignificant drop

only important if you have massive amounts of stocks or foreign investments
