Found N.I.B in Hong-Kong, on e-bay. Body was sanded before painting, for a better grip and flat aspect. Jerrycan comes from a Wild Willy. Home-made wipers I'm specially proud of. I gave front shocks their correct angles by making new attachments on wishbones. Low bumper (wich is absent on the real one) with sides cut off in order to make front shocks more visible. Heat shrinkable sleeve gives the shocks springs wires their flat black colour, & correct diameter. Ball diff quickly replaced by a Blazing Star/Dirt Thrasher pinion-type one, because of self-unscrewing problems. Externally similar, but fool-proof. I added horizontal radiator grill. Searching for body & K parts. Who has?

Very nicely done. Much better than stock.
