It was designed more for BrikWars utility than realism. :D (...) Yes, I did! Thank you for noticing. (...) (25 years ago, 4-May-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.gaming)

(...) It looks cool! Since it looks like a truck more than a jeep, it is probably better scaled to the minifigs than the jeep. I also like the bombed out church in the background. It kinda looks like your work. Did you make it? Fredrik (25 years ago, 4-May-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.gaming)
