                    Very nice Ron

                    I have a couple of these - makes me want to dig them out but I must resist as far too many on the go :smiling4:

                      Thanks boys. Glad you all approve of the diddy jeep.... :thumb2:

                      Simon - It's a very easy and straight forward 'Quicky'. Perhaps a nice little infill project?

                        Nothing is ever quick and easy once I get hold of it Ron - I would end up changing half the bits :smiling5:

                            Nope, didn't work - opened the box, perused the contents and before I knew it the side panel had thinned wheel arch edges and the body panel detail scraped in on the inside........... :rolling:
