young_version Very nice job on the jeep! It looks really nice! Are those 2.2 tires? Or 1.9?

YoUnG_vErSiOn · 01-24-2008, 06:59 PM

it's 1/6th scale. 2.2 wheels and tires.

TheButcher69 · 01-25-2008, 01:38 AM

Thanks! I have the same Jeep. Got it at K-mart years ago & just gave that one to my wife & I got a 21st Century one at Walmart thanks to my brother!

YoUnG_vErSiOn · 01-25-2008, 02:26 AM

mines a 21st century one too.

TheButcher69 · 01-25-2008, 07:03 PM

Oh I thought it was the GI Joe one K-mart sold like this one: http://thebutcher6999.tripod.com/sit...ys3e/index.htm

YoUnG_vErSiOn · 01-26-2008, 01:53 AM

yah it is..the twenty first century version.the old one was cracked from maybe two molds. this one has many glued and screwed on parts. if you have pics of a newer one please do share i thought this was the latest incarnation.

Here's the link to my 21st Century http://thebutcher6999.tripod.com/sit...lla2/index.htm And here's the link to my site with the changes I made through the years (And still making ;)). http://thebutcher6999.tripod.com/

mine is a replica of the 1942 willys jeep

TheButcher69 · 01-28-2008, 03:07 PM

Huh. That's strange out of all the 21st Century Jeeps I've seen yours is the 1st one I seen with Plastic covered seats instead of cloth & your grill is squared at the top & bottom like the one I got at K-mart where all the 21st Century Jeep I seen are rounded with less slots. Does you hood open & close or does it have to be unbolted to come off? Also was your front bumper molded into the body or was it removable?

goslo · 01-28-2008, 11:51 PM

Hate to be the historian here but 1942 is in the 20th century not the 21st.

hood opens freely and bumper comes off after the lower frame, but i chopped it. seats are plastic and the top is made from a thin material.shovel axe rifle and jerry can were also included.but for some reason my joe has an extra opposable digit. i'll show you what i mean later.

TheButcher69 · 01-29-2008, 10:01 PM

Wow that's the first one i seen or heard of like yours! Metal top too! Sounds rare to me even being a limited edition being joe has extra digit!
