Yesterday I started a Jeep finally!!! :P

Some of you remember it, it was the background for a 1991 Grand Wagoneer in 1/64, with a "before" sign on it. :)

It is always a die-cast Majorette in 1/64... This time I will not put the "wood" panels on it... I don't have a real idea on what to do on it... So will see... :) For now it is in a jar with paint stripper... :)

This is the Jeep, a SJ Cherokee...

Those are neat! One of the few scale Jeeps I don't have...how about a "monster" Jeep???

Yep, very nice, need some works to be correct for the scale.

Let me think about the monster truck...

Cool idea. I always love certain cars from this maker and have a few. This Jeep and Toyota FJ40? were among my favorites. And the widebody Fiero

Agree with you! They made some cool cars, I still have around 1000 of them (cars/trucks...)

Made some progress...

I'm remaking all the interior from scratch except the dashboard, I will modified one from a Jeep Commander. B)

Almost completed the steering wheels, need to add the levers.

This is awesome. When my son was newborn I bought a lot of matchbox hotwheels etc in advance and I remember being quite excited to find the Wagoneer and FJ. I just found them yesterday in a box of old toys and now I can see that I have to do something with them.

This is smaller than the scale I normally build in but for some reason, it has my undivided attention... My daily driver is an '81 Wagoneer and I have frinds who own an '81 and '83 Cherokee like what you are working on. they are by far my favorite vehicle type. It's looking really good and I'm looking forward to seeing more of this!
