Earlier this past summer ('03) I ventured away from my usual arena of absorption. Researching and building WW II German panzers and such is how I spend most of my valuable "hobby" time here on earth. However, sometimes just for a change of pace I will wander off into the Allied side of things. Well one of these roamings is to be the subject of this blog. A first attempt at building the newer Tamiya release of the venerable Willys Jeep of W.W. II. I have not used any photo-etch in the 1/35th scale replica but I have added a few scratch built tweaks and some stowage to add interest. For reference I searched the internet and a used an articles from Tamiya Modelling Magazine #65. |

| Chapter 1 - Nice Things Come In Small Packages | Mar 17, 2004 |
| Here is a montage of the various aspects that come with the kit- the box top art, the cover and the paint schemes on the back of the leaflet type instruction sheet. Below that we can see the contents of the box, two main sprue trees, a clear sprue for windsceen and headlights, the main body and the decal sheet. |
