Agreed.

Here's my first look video:

With fees, two kits were $167.95. Shipping to me in AR was $79.02 for middle rate EMS. $246.97 total with shipping and fees.

So, $246.97 total, works out to $123.48 per kit, shipped to my place. Good stuff!

Ordered Jan. 29th and they should be here Monday. Had to wait for the 2 week holiday they celebrate over there during the first of Feb.

That two part body also makes it really easy to make a Comanche

And use the back half as a sweet haul trailer!

okay so going through a agent would be cheaper if I wanted more than one.

What are you guys searching to find on eBay?

I just now typed in "Cherokee" and changed the category to "Toys and Hobbies" and found it, second listing.

Good call.. XJ and Jeep were not very fruitful

That's what I was getting at. The scale off-road looked fabulous, but it was even more expensive and a much smaller scale. I love that this can use the standard parts and look scale next to other popular hard bodies

I asked about this a p my time ago!!!! Sweet baby Jebus!!!! I was always jealous when the og guys here got the Germany xj which were absolutely beautiful. This makes me happy!!! Great thing about the size is that 1.9 equal to 15" wheels and 2.2 equal about a 17" which is perfect for the 1ton look and tire size

I spoke to the manufacturer last week and he said there are currently no plans for other bodies. I'll check in with him again in a few weeks to gauge the popularity.

Let him know, he has at least one customer for an 80s Wagoneer!

Thanks for the pic next to the proline! That's what I was curious about. Looks like it's a tad bit wider which would be perfect for me! I saw the wheelbase listed, was the length and width posted somewhere?

[Szczerba]

8.5" width
19" length
Narrows down to 7.5" up front, note, no fenders attached.

Awesome thanks!

So, pulled the trigger on one. I am not sure it will get built any time soon, but I wanted to be sure to get one
