First post... And First Jeep of the year... I started yesterday to play with this new project... Some of you remember it, it was the background for a 1991 Grand Wagoneer in 1/64, with a "before" sign on it. Here a pics... It is always a die-cast Majorette in 1/64... This time I will not put the "wood" panels on it... I don't have a real idea on what to do on it... So will see... This is the Jeep, a SJ Cherokee... After a bath in a jar with paint stripper...

Made some progress... I'm remaking all the interior from scratch except the dashboard, I will modified one from a Jeep Commander. Almost completed the steering wheels, need to add the levers. Those are the new seats for it, the style it is like on the early Wagoneer. And now the seats done. I changed different time my mind on the seat color... And a the end I prefer this... Add also seatbelt....

Wow Brizio, nice work on such a small scale! Do you use a magnifier, or are your young eyes still very accurate? ;D

I'm impressed with you guys that can build/modify in such a tiny scale. 1/25th is my limit. And even that gives me issues. Nice work Briz.

Thank you all guys!
@big Ed, It is also difficult work in this scale, after a while you eyes and back became tired... But I like those little Jeep... The only "problem" is that are metal... Little difficult to work...
