Good job on the conversion.

The instructions call to use the chrome dropped front axle but there is a non-plated front axle right next to the rear differential half on the parts tree that is not mentioned in the instructions.  Revell definitely needs to replace those lame 1980's wheels.

Bought the latest reissue a few weeks ago.  Looks like a good kit.  There are extra suspension  and engine parts not mentioned in the instructions though.

I am hoping to build it similar to a Willys pickup I saw at a Goodguys show a couple of years back.

In Topic: Source for throttle return springs

I made throttle return springs by taking the wire out of an electric motor from a broken VCR and wrapping it around a small diameter drill bit and painting it the color I wanted.
