Just look at my kit thread to see the requests:

My current "caster" has had my Jeep master parts for well over a year now, & I've got 6 kits to show for my $600 outlay! Can't even sell them because of the lackluster quality of the body itself...I have to put several hours of labor into each just to make them nice enough to sell...
Have you thought about a solid cast of the boby? or rapid prototyping? Hell, I'll take a plaster cast.

That looks Awsome! That was one of these "road rippers"?

You gotta explain how you did that, Please.

I want to turn mine into a Matching Black Panel.

I'm guessing on this....but I THINK the picture above is a redo by a previous member. He was quite talented in that area and did many fitting different scenarios. You might be able to locate some of them in some very old threads from about 4 years ago.
