Thank you Danno! Thank you Foxer!

LOL!!! You ebay package got lost... Just kidding! Thank you! Thank you GeeBee!!!

That's beautiful!

Thank you all!!! Glad you like it! Totally safe!!! :D :D I would suggest if anyone want to build it, to buy also a AMT Jeep Willys (Hogans Hero or similar) to use as donor kit) it will simplify a lot the build. Thanks again!

Thank you VW Dave! I just finish it, and a the end it was totally fun build it! Thank you Erik! You need to have this attitude not only on a model, but also on the life. For this build also helped me the reply on the forum, people encouraging me to go forward. Many times I though to trash this kit.

Finally done... I couldn't believe I finish it, calculating how many times I thought tho trow it out of the window... Here the link of the building: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=64326&st=0 Here some pics...

Thank you! The bags are from a piece of elastic. The headlight lens are not clear... I try to put different surfaces under them, like silver, chrome for see if they looks good, but they don't look. The lens looks flat, or like when you drop superglue on a piece that is clear. I think to use some headlight that I have on my spare parts, that they are perfect clear. But I need to resize them... :-/ Her the lens from the kit and the "new" one. bottom left the kit, top left the New one, top right kit, and bottom the new lens. Look a the difference. Here the headlight finished, I add the back part, some chrome in the middle and the bezel. The kit doesn't have door handle, here they are. ;D

That's a great idea!

Beautiful!!

A little step... The parking light guard... Looks a easy thing to do, but it is not, the front part it is bent in 4 places! I draw this for explain how the parking light guard is... The parking light that are on the kit are a piece of white resin, I replace them with some I had on my spare parts. Before paint the body I drill new holes for the parking light. Here how they are on the kit. And here on the new position, more on the edge of the fender.

Thank you 1930fordpickup! Thank you Edward! Good eye sight! Thank you Richard!

Beautiful job!

I did some more work yesterday... Finished the dashboard, ok it needs the steering... I made a radio, because the Jeep (real and model) doesn't have it. I saw a nice DJ-5 with a radio on the sun visor, so I stolen the idea... And here finally the body met the chassis... After that I put all the mail inside.

Thank you Geoff!

Cool I built the same kit decades ago, painted in orange. I still have it.
