Brizio Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 Hello guys! 10 days ago I finished another Jeep, this is a kind of replica about the 1/1 I own. I started with a die-cast Majorette Jeep Cherokee SJ in 1/64. Here the Cherokee... The big part of work was taken by removing the 4 fenders, Work on the front grille and change it from a Razor to a Final Type, and also the front head light round to square. The stock interior. The first Majorette model had a Dog, after they remove it, but left the bed, the dogs rear foots and tail... Cut the grille... The new interior with the back seat, I rebuild all the dashboard, with a new and steering wheels, shift gear and cruise control lever, all the wood. I put the persian carpet, because I have them also on mine... They are cheaper than the original!!! The dome light... Roof rack made in 10 parts... And here the Jeep... I forgot to put the tow package... But I'll do soon...
Rob Hall Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 That's some very cool detail work in small scale! The only model in any scale I've seen of a GW is the beautiful one Auto Art made in 1:18th diecast a few years ago. I'd love to see one in 1:25th..always liked those Jeeps. I'm partial to Jeep wagons since my daily driver is an '00 Grand Cherokee.
RodneyBad Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 Excellent Job. IF I didn't see the B-4 pics, I'd never guess how far off it started.
E St. Kruiser50 Posted May 20, 2009 Posted May 20, 2009 Beautiful work my friend . Glad you joined our club . See you next meeting for pizza - dave
Brizio Posted May 20, 2009 Author Posted May 20, 2009 Thank you!!! @Rob Hall, The AutoArt one is very rare and expensive, but its a wonderful model. I'm working on a 1/25 Wagoneer, but I need to find someone to help me to cast it. @Dave, Sure Dave!!! I love pizza!!!!!!!!!!!!
