I like that! I've bought a rc SJ body that I want to make as a scale model of my old SJ, buying too much for the GV though so it has to wait haha...

Ta Jay.

I have 2 SJ's, both convertibles, one with a roof and one without (though making a roof shouldn't be that tricky) if anyone wants their car made up.

Sounds good, I was goin to use rc 4x4 wheels and tyres for my scale replica but the smallest I can find work out to be scale to 35's and they work out at £80, so I think I'll be making them myself somehow, not sure how though haha

Think I might have to make a start on building it..
