Sorry, should have explained, it's a Biante 1:18 FJ sedan chopped down to make a ute, everything from the doors back is scratch built or modified, I have fitted xu1 engine and gearbox, recessed firewall etc

And generally re-painted and changed bits and pieces. I have also done an FJ wagon and am in precess of doing an FJ coupe with Norman supercharged grey motor......
Thanks for positive comments.

Re: Newbie to forum and modified diecast
Thanks Siggs - all the more remarkable IMO. I'm sure others will agree when I ask if there are any more different photos of this amazing modification?

Looks like an FJ problem developing here . At first glance its a ute with wheels and paint but there's a whole lot a hard work gone into the conversion and come up beautifully . More then a coupla days in this one.
