Default Jeep J-20 Double Cab Long Bed Pickup build

I'd like to present the process of building the 1970's Jeep J-20 body.
English is my second language, so I will not talk much so as not to annoy you with my illiteracy.
I like this forum, it helped me a lot with my first build, so I decided to post here.

Scale is 1:9, the same scale as NewBright Jeep.
I use 2 mm and 3 mm komacel, 1 mm plastic and 2 mm plexiglass.

First of all I made a few drawings.


And then a paper model.

Don't think that I have done this myself, I have a mate who controls all my work. Here he is:








The last times, when I painted everything was covered in paint and body stuck dust. So this time I built a paint-spraying booth.

This is like the 5th build thread I've seen from Russia where it's been some obscure vehicle, completely constructed from scratch. The quality is always amazing, like Hollywood prop & minature quality.

What are the dimensions of your body? Just wondering how big this is and what drive train you might be using.

Awesome J-20.

Thank you guys! I started in mid-September and worked unhurriedly, It takes 2-3 hours per day.
I have no plan to build a very realistic chassis, it will be SCX10 with some modifications.
I cut out the grill from a komacel sheet. It is made of two halves to obtain two fold. Headlights cut with a rat-file. Then it is covered with foil scotch tape.

Here are a few pictures of my JK DoubleCab. I hope this will help you not to get bored while I'm working on the current build(:
It was in the last days of summer and in October, when the snow fell.
