Springfield Jurassic Jeep #31
Re: Springfield Jurassic Jeep #31
Looks great! Also, sweet work on the TFA and C3PO. I'm wondering, do you mean Springfield MO? If so I may have to come out some time to check out your work in person. Just getting settled in Wichita at the moment.

Thank you. I am in MASS.
Since it was nice out again I started some interior work. I put the carpet back in and mounted these TUFFY cases for storage convenience and security. They do look similar to the film but I already decided it wasn't going to be canon.

Oh, my bad. I should have known from the license plate. Just curious, where did you source the rain coat and hard hat from? They would be great props to add in the near future.

Re: Springfield Jurassic Jeep #31
Thank you. I bought the helmet from ebay:

I used a "For Sale" sign from Home Depot that was cut around 3.5 inches Vinyl Decals:

And the raincoats are from Harbor Freight using the same art printed to proper scale on waterslide paper and placed on the jacket. It hasnt held up particularly well even using hairspray as a top coat. But it looks OK for now and at a little more than $10 its worth it.

My daughter made me these...
Re: Springfield Jurassic Jeep #31
Oh she should sell those to forum members.
Re: Springfield Jurassic Jeep #31
I can ask but she took 6 months to just make these !
Re: Springfield Jurassic Jeep #31
I had to buy some accessories for the project and having gotten all of my flairs and panels from Quadratec, I elected to upgrade the to Stainless Steel Body Assembly Hardware (Hex Head)

Wish I had purchased the Soft Top last year when I was doing all my research. The price went up by $300!
I compared the different kinds and ultimately chose BESTOP.

And Since I am in New England, I will have to change back to the hard top. I wasn't impressed with the OEM method and got these accessories too...
Lange Originals® Kwick Hardtop Release Kit for 87-95 YJ Jeep® Wrangler

I will install that in the fall.
