I've chucked it on the window sill (as the sun's out) and will see if that does anything.

Yes I remember mine changing colour, probably time has taken its toll

I found this it was my favourite Action Force Red Shadows Vehicle ever:
Then I found this conversion

**dsteingass**

That is a pretty insane conversion!

Cab surgery

**Dr H**

I stand corrected, it has gone a slightly darker green.

That's a really crazy conversion you found LDD.

Good work Dave. Like how you have him holding the steering wheel and gear lever.

dave...

the driver looks very fitting... lots of hard work put already into that wee jeep!... treadplate for the floor was a very good idea!

and LDD... awesome find... the first one reminded me of a perverted TIE fighter...and then the ATAT...

**dsteingass**

Thanks guys!

I didn't do any work on it today, I had to run a service call for my dentist, and I've just been sleepy ever since.

**Viktor von Domm**

ouch... i need to see the dentist in two weeks... but only for my kids check up...*phewww*

**Theophony**

Dave, what size are those zing tires in case I blatantly/accidentally steal your idea?

The same size as the ones in the picture

they come in 3 sizes thats seriously and check out the new canisters.

The driver looks very comfortable and the detailing is spot on especially as mentioned the positioning of the driver
