Progress: Tamiya Jeep Grand Cherokee

Great kit! Suspension is fully working and adjustable with springs/screws, wheels turn and fronts steer. I recommend this for anyone, especially those that want to understand the whole idea of 4WD. Anyway here's pics:

That has been sitting in my hobby store for a couple of months now. I always look at it when I go in but I wasnt sure what it would be like. After seen yours I might grab it next time in.
Oh yeah, looking good so far, keep the pics coming.

I have to say that Jeeps are totally the choice for offroad, but that's really all I'd own one for. Thanks for the comments.
