I bought this one for my son a few months back and was quite surprised just how much detail this jeep has. There were a few areas from memory around the suspension components you have to look at the instructions very carefully or else you could get them back to front but It looks really good when complete. Have fun making this one.

Did you have the engine in this one or did you leave it out and glue bonnet closed?

Hi Paul
This was the first kit I built when I took up the hobby ten years ago. I was dead chuffed with the result. It will be very interesting to see your take on it.

Also one of my first few kits and I really enjoyed it.
I have a couple of pictures I took a few weeks ago when I spotted a Ford and a wileys side by side down the seafront.
would you like see them?

snag is im doing it for a GB elsewhere........only allowed to use whats in the box, so no extras, no cargo in the back, etc.....so its going to be bare basics
