Looks like those caterpillar tracks might make opening the doors challenging.

How would you get the door open?

Big pry bar or an axe.


Seriously, given the nature of it being for (hopefully) rare use entry and exit through the back tailgate would be a practical compromise.

Access through the tailgate? I like the windshield defogger.

That car certainly isn't going to be chasing any bad guys on a fast get-away and it would take a while to get any distance for a rescue. I bet it only goes 20 mph tops like the trucks on the thread I just posted.

Again very cool stuff. You'd enter through the side window Nascar style ......

fortyford: You press a button & the body raises up. I can raise the body on my motor chair up off the chassis a foot.
