The jeep fire truck looks good, but it is not a CJ2A. On the WWII Willys the gas tank filler cap is under the seat and the seat hinges forward for access. On the CJ2A the gas tank is under the seat but the gas cap is on the left side inset in the body and the seat is fixed. None the less I think there were WWII jeeps converted. Just use the stock kit front grill.

Would you know of full CJ2A kits in 1/35?

Hello Pave-hawk, maybe I can help you with that, I've a 200+ photo walk around of the 6 wheeler troop carrier,fitters vehicle, and the flatbed version. If anyone is interested in it, let me know and I will send you a disc.

None in plastic. There might have been a resin conversion at one time. I can't remember.

During my Tank Workshop days our Japanese contact told us that Skybow had a CJ2 planned, but once the company went under who knows what became of those plans.

The CJ2A was used by the IDF, so I would like a 1/35th kit to do an IDF version.

Thanks! In my case my plan was to use one as base for an early jeepney.

Anyone know of some suitable figures for the Rover? At the moment, I'm thinking that I'll have to modify some to suit.

I did use an MB for a previous project. However I understand that CJ2As were used and converted as well.

There are a few more pics of the LRPV kit on Hobbyeasy :

Hard to tell in detail but the chassis definitely looks wrong.
Looks like they took a standard 4x4 chassis and just extended it, with coil suspension for the rear two axles. Potentially disappointing

I understand now.

One of my co-workers is from the Philippines. She married another co-worker. They took a Jeepney ride in Manila on a shopping trip while visiting her family. Scared him half to death.

Lots of jeep parts are made there. I have a brand new jeep body ready for my Willys, when I get back to it.

For me this is not problem as the chassis is not visible at all when the model is finished.
