📋 About This Mod
"The Highwayman's a sweet car; Chryslus sure knew how to make them back then." -Chop Shop mechanic Fallout 2
Where to find car in Mojave?
Wrecked Highwayman is situated between Searchlight and Novac.
Where to find Fuel Cell Controller for the car?
Lets make this a little competition. I have hidden two of these components in Mojave. Hints for the locations to search from can be found from mod images here and checking out the car in game. Lets see who can get a drivable Highwayman first. Please publish the locations in comments if you find them.
How to Drive?
Activating front of the car gets you driving. Activating rear lets you use the trunk, refuel and adjust the map marker on/off(default off). Car can be repaired with Repair Thermic Lance and Scrap Metal.
Requirements
The Frontier is needed. Using vehicle system and other assets from Frontier files.
