Next month is the due date for this club project, I almost forgot about it, because I had a little problem with the body of this model... The community building has different steps, engine, chassis, interior and full model. My building project is on a Willys Wagon in 1/87, a railroad model from the 60's. Here some pics. The engine I made is a V8, I think it looks cool on my Jeep project. The rolling chassis, now it has a smaller steering wheels. I'm not sure if keep those wheels or not... The interior is done, but I forgot to take a pics of it... so here is after the paint. And here the problem... I removed the color on the body, and after when I start to work on it, it cracks everywhere, looks that the plastic is too dry. Also some parts are missing, like the rear 3/4... So I'm trying to fix it... Here a picture when it had all the parts and color.

Dang...that's waaaay small. Very good work Fabrizio. Like Buck mentioned..that engine is awesome. I don't see(no pun intended) how you can see to build in that scale!

Probably I'm able to finish this one... Yesterday I rebuilt the rear 3/4, and some other pieces that were missing. Now it is ready for the primer!
