Pajero Ute Quick update

So I am waiting on paint to dry, putty to set properly, and other things on the other projects. I bought this Paj about a year ago and when it arrived it had been squished by Aus Post. Should also mention it is probably the thinnest body I have ever seen.


I was going to us it for spares as its only curbside when after a few ales and just staring at it I thought ...wadda bout a Pajero ute, So I chopped and trimed and reglued some bits ....



The roof looks a bit high. I may drop it a bit. Im going for the longer / space cab look as well. It will have a small pillar near the back of the door when finished and the back will be linned with checkerplate.

Not sure if it will be worth the effort but should be a bit of fun and something diferent (I like different).

What do you recon??

Go for it!

"You can dooo eeet"
Should look good dean, great way to fix a damaged body

SWEEET! I saw one of these as a ute a few years ago, was on 35"s, looked awsomely tuff, but looked right. Go for it Dean, a few more ale's and who knows what you'll have when you wake up in the morning. ( sounds familiar ).

That's one way to to fix it make a ute out of it.

that looks good.... keep going with it mate

different is good, go the chop, even just a small one.

Love the fact the box spells out the truth about most of these - Urban 4WD!

Loks promising.

Looks good so far Dean, great idea, keep us posted on this one.

Looks good mate, personally I'd go low (surprise ) But It looks good at the current height. Just give her an outback paint job and It wouldn't look out of place
Keep at it.

I am all for lowered suspension but I think a body lift, suspension raise and some massive mud slingers would be awesome on that.

Cool idea by the way.

To me it looks perfect at the height iit is.

if it was me I would move the rear pillars forward about 1/4 in,but that's me

Ok just a quick update. Pillars are in but still more sanding and shaping to do. I like how its looking and once its all painted up should look good. Lots more to do tho ...back to it !

Sand,,bog,sand,bog........ it just seems to go on sometimes doesn't it mate, will be worth the effort when you have finished something different, keep at it Dean, looking good mate.

Keep at it mate, turning out to be a nice build.

Cheers guys. I love Pajero's and this is the Pajero I wish they built. I have to be careful though as its the thinnest body I have ever seen so have to be careful not to rub right through.

Anyhoot back to it!

looking good so far

That's a very creative idea and I love it.

That's my least favourite part of modelling. such a grind.

Thats why they are called Montero's in the states and Shoguns in the UK (or is it the other way around??) It actually means Wanker in Spanish
