1/16 willys jeep and cammo store

Post by Captain Hilts »

Hello , thought I post a few pics of the Danbury mint Willys I got recently from ebay, It had a few problems but all fixed, gear stick was off ,also a light lens off and the stem for the 50 cal was broken,the lens and gear stick were in the box, a little glueing and drilling and a little piece of brass tube for a new gun stem and bobs your uncle, only missing the canvas roof but I prefer it without, added a torro private and also made some cammo from cloths from poundland and a wooden frame from bamboo skewers ,also pound land, the cloths I dyed with dark green fabric dye . a little piece of wax string wound round to look like rope on the front of jeep, :thumbup: I really should stop getting sidetracked and finish my Tiger1, hope yous like.

Good evening!
As Carl noted, a beautiful Jeep! No collection or tank park is complete without a Jeep!

Good morning!
That's a lovely vintage photo! There is a lot more action when a tank runs over an old wood bodied automobile than when a modern tank runs over an all metal ( or plastic ) modern car.

Has anyone seen my car? I parked it just over there in the field!!
It's a wasted trip baby. Nobody said nothing about locking horns with no Tigers.

Anybody know the tank type?

I'm guessing pre-1940 by some of the features?
