And the (...) (25 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

(...) That jeep looks familiar: (URL) I modeled it after a Vietnam era jeep, not a WWII one. But they are quite similar! Also, I don't care much for minifig scale, so I didn't model it for the minifigs. But it appears to work pretty well anyway. (...) (25 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

(...) Amazing detail, building techniques, and trueness to the prototypes! You're getting way too good at this--I'm beginning to get discouraged ;) --Bram (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

Shaun, I loved it all. My personal favorites were the jeep, SAMAS armor, skeletal warriors, and the various gun emplacements (Howitzer, etc.). Trying to place a Green Willy's Jeep into my LDraw community, I must ask: A. Have you built your jeep on (...) (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)
