You have done yourself proud and for one little boy the best Christmas present ever. Great workmanship,I suggest you "Patent" it before some enterprising person in a foreign country is thinking of Xmas next year. Fantastic work. Little Jo

This one is electric!
Hi Guy's,
A Friend of mine copied my GPW for his son and he installed an electric motor in it. Unfortunately young kids grow fast and he does no longer really fit in the Jeep. The Jeeps featured in a television program on Dutch telly. Have a look at the pics P9020006.jpg P9020008.jpg P9020011.jpg P9020014.jpg Cheers,

Colin,
I believe it took him some six months to build. Not full time but on and off. He restores classic cars for a living and has no problems with making a new fender or door panel. I have seen work that looked better than new coming from his hands. A true old fashioned craftsman. I wish I had half his talent/skill with sheet metal.
But your Jeep looks good too! Your son will be thrilled. I suddenly remembered a Jeep I saw at Beltring a couple of years ago. Hang on, looking for pics.......... PICT0146.jpg PICT0143.jpg PICT0144.jpg PICT0145.jpg Found them! This took the builder more than a year if I remember correctly. Cheers,
