Robot Ideas.. Hummer RC/ Mini-itx / Serial

Brain: I'm thinking of an epia TC6000E it has a DC-DC controller. and I can run it off a cf card (not much memory) and add a wireless card to control this robot through the web: (as well as have some programming)

Body: I'm thinking for a body one of those Hummer H2's from walmart.. really large (enough for my mini-itx)

this one is pretty cool there's room inside for it:

this second one has 19V battery which means it's pretty strong.. strong enough to carry the minititx.

(I have one of Acromnames gp 1.0 motorminds too i can delegate some of the driving to )

Control: Ideally i'd like to control front/reverse and direction using a dual H-bridge (dual H-bridge) and a serial port.

looked at the Motor mind B/C but not sure exactly how to get those working on com pots..

any suggestions for hardware and software would be appreciated.

hopefully u guys can help me put the hardware together
