Jeep CJ7 Renegade altered

[crazyjim]

Well, here's the Jeep I was planning to build as a gasser but it ends up as an altered. Paint is HOK limetime pearl. I put a Hemi in there and set it back a little bit. Got it all wired up. I put the battery in back along with a tube bumper that would be filled with lead for weight transfer. I think the front springs came from a '37 Chevy kit with an aluminum axle. Front wheels are from the '56 Ford kit.

_{Some paddle tires and you have a sand racer! Nice!}

[crazyjim]

Thanks Jesse. I have a set of paddle tires but was saving them for a dune buggy build. Now that you mention a sand racer, I might have to do some research on them and see what happens. Thanks for the idea.

Very cool Jim!!!

That HEMI seems to fit nicely in there

[crazyjim]

Thank you Jeff. There was plenty of room for the Hemi even with setting it further back.

Everything I look for in a model. Hemi, slicks and out of the box thinking. Veeeeery nice,

I like it! Cool model. I drive a green Jeep and have been looking for HEMI logos to stick on the sides just for laughs. This makes me want to do it even more.

[crazyjim]

Thank you very much Jose & Ken. There must be Hemi decals available somewhere.

That looks excellent! Shiny paint and very nice detail. Interesting subject too, and a very nicely built model, so I really like it. Good work as always Jim.

[crazyjim]

Well thank you very much, Niko. I really appreciate it.

[Nitro Neil]

[ChevyCoupe41]

Very nice jeep! I like that color and engine looks really cool. Nice Job! Maybe I will do same kind of project in someday.

[crazyjim]

Thank you Neal. It's a pretty bright color.

Thanks Matti. I needed to build a gasser or altered for the MAGS show in October. This puppy will be my entry.
