Street Rod Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Great job on the Jeep and putting it in the crate is a super cool idea! Coloring outside the lines! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOBLNG Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 (edited) Thanks Guys!🙂 You may have heard about the “Jeep in a crate” legend/scam? https://www.warhistoryonline.com/war-articles/jeep-in-a-crate-50-the-legend-and-the-truth.html I picked up the built jeep for $5. I’ve built one CJ-2A and didn’t want to go through all the work correcting this one too…so I took the easy way out. I had to scratch build the seats and the brake drums, and adapt the die cast tires from another project to some jeep rims. I spent more time on the crate than I did on the jeep.😜 Edited February 15 by NOBLNG 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Geiger Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Super project! I saved photos of a real one in the crate for years hoping to build this one day. You beat me to it! Glad someone built it! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zippi Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Very kewl. I remember watching a video years ago of the Army dropping those and the assembly. The Jeepney's in Southeast Asia and elsewhere are probably some of what the Army dropped back in the day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
