|  My Cherokee RC! I search a XJ body for a long time, and finally I find it!  I find a old Cherokee RC, in 1/20 scale, and after paint the body like my real XJ, I start the work on the frame. So here some pics.     |

I'm most impressed with the Bra (bug shield) on the front. Did you make it yourself?

Someone needs to make a lexan XJ body, I know someone did back in the 80's. I would love to build a scale crawler to look like my XJ. Any pictures of the full size? By the way, the bra is a nice touch.

Another thing I must make before paint the body, is must refresh it, because my real model is from '98, and the RC was pre 97MY. So I make the new side marker signal lights, and the other two European up the fender. And for finish the little two license plate... Yes I make myself teh little bra. I used to make it 3M black vinil. Before I make a stamp with the paper, than I put on it a nylon grille, paint it on flat black, and after I put on it the black vinil, with the two little handle. The bra I can remove from the RC when I want, like the one on my real Jeep. |

Another one body in 1\25 is from a old Cherokee XJ Tamyia model kit, but also very difficult to find. I think the next one I find, I make a stamp, so after I can make all the bodyes I want... Now I work in another Cherokee job. But different scale... |
