 I like the chrome grille of the Laredo compared to the Limited.
The conversion work only required the scratchbuilding of the wheels and hand
drawing of the logos, so I proceeded for the work. |
 A "master" of the wheel was
scratchbuilt from a sheet of plastic and epoxy putty, then it was duplicated with
resin. The front and rear Jeep logos were foil cast, and the chrome
grille was
represented with a metal foil. |
 The engine was detailed with various pipes and wires as shown.
The air conditioning pipes and brake pipes are visible in the picture. |

The body was prepared with dark gray primer in order to darken the body
color of red. Then, Testors clear over coat was applied, and the body was polished
with Tamiya Polishing compound and Tamiya Modeling Wax. |
