Jb17!!!
 
Greetings,this is 17Dean at Washroom Fab and Rc Garage Shop would like to show off our first build from the new work center called 4 DG which stands for 4 Door Garage . That will be the name of the scale garage once built. Any hoot , here is our first project called JB17. This is a Fastlane Jeep acquired from my good friend kunas !!!!

Got bit by the jeep bug , I know I wanted something a tad different from all the great jeep builds that are here . But one thing I noticed is that there's not a ton of Jeep Brute builds. Grabbed a few pics , grabbed the Drimmel ,saw and went to cutting!!! Add styrene!!!

So since the majority of that is in place , I decided to get back to 4 DG , to work on the JB17. At first I wanted to do a back glass but changed my mind at the last sec !!!
