Great idea! Glad you are doing that. We need more Willy's crawlers out here.

Its made by Marx Toys.Not an actual GI Joe Jeep but its kind of cool. More CJish rather than the usual flatty. No real plan for it , but its not cherry by any means so I won't feel bad cutting it up.
I have this same Marx jeep. mine did not come with windshield so I fabed one and ditched the hinge & made mt own. cut the seats out & flat floored it with dog house for trans.

Wow! I had one of those CJ-5 Marx jeeps when I was 10. It came with a trailer and spot light that snapped into the bed of the trailer. Would love to see someone build one into a crawler like the flatty.

Flip over to pg 2, in the Large Scale section, about halfway down the page, "Marx Toys Jeep"

Nice, thanks. I think the scale is slightly off for these. These are actually larger than a flatty, but the pics make them look the same or smaller.
