Old Jeep needs yellow Oldman EMU shocks.



That's the yellow I need.


Trying out home print waterslide, it works really good.

After three layers coating.

I was so pleased with the waterslide I decided to do the same for the body.

Not bad right?

With the yellow EMU.


Dew extra more...

@codyboy: I'm not familiar with " guage sheet" please explain.

@Poprivet: the hood, grill and tailgate you can get it here The Scaler Store - TSS Tamiya Jeep YJ/CJ rear window kit

@pquittem: it's a tamiya wrangler body, cut away the hood and grill and replace it with resin cj hood and grill.

Shifting up high gears: 2x Sawback shifters.




Got the Handgranate and knife from Rambo.



Little rope for "adventure" look.



Wanted a Marlboroman to drive my truck.


Duke Nukem is a find candidate.


That must hurts a lot


Not bad right?



But he's way to heavy with all those muscles.


Sam Fischer will do...

But.... Cowboy Sam didn't make it to the final stage. Introducing Bill, a more lively all American big mouth Jeep driver.




No doubt here, it's a Jeep!


The rope thing added on the chassis as well.



Upgraded Chinese Winch for a more Warn original.


Side mirrors attached, styreen "stiffness bar" for a more tough looklook.

Next, weathering. I hate this! It could go horribly wrong. After one Moon Shine I'm ready to jump in. Unfortunately with no airbrush.

Using only this:



Lots of highlighting and dusting. Don't want to over do things. Needs to keep light.







The rope needs to get "old" also.


Well so needs the shiny hardtop...


So, that's it. Hard to see the end results on picture but I'm happy.....

Nice 3D printed Jerry can and carrier in red but it's going to be military green.




Adding spare wheel and stuff..



"licence to climb"


So, almost done. Let's ends with a Bang... Bullitt hole?


Who's to blame?

It's zombie Duke. Revanche is sweet.

(had a imperfection on my Lexan screen so a Bullitt hole seems to fit perfectly overall)

NO Jeep without the stars and stripes. But now in color.


"One life Live it" land rover? Not on my jeep.


Aerial antenna for radio to go...


Compliment Gear Head for them fine products.


Damn, he's still there.....


This might help.


Well, all good things come to an end. Here's a before and after pics. Thanks for watching and see you folks again on my next update.

Cheers.

I usually steer clear of Jeep builds but I really like this one. It's different and looks like my local modded Jeeps.

Very nice work. Thanks for sharing with us.

It's really starting to look like a Peterson's 4wheel and off road Ultimate Adventure rig!

My only concern is that the front upper link appears to be bolted directly to the housing with very little vertical separation from the lower links. The armchair engineer inside me is trying to tell myself that there is a nut hiding on the other side of that bolt inside the housing, because it sure doesn't seem like the housing is thick enough to hold the threads. If your easy on equipment it would probably hold together...

I know Meatmonkey. Let's find out if it can hold it together next week. Going on a 5 km tough forest trail so fingers crossed. Posting video soon.
