The Jeep is in NICE shape and the trailer is almost mint...Both tail lights too..... 7000 Jeep NICE PICKUP 002

Nice Jeep! Nice price! The battery compartment is nice and clean.

It almost sounds like you're complaining that it's in such good shape! lol!

Like I said in Charlotte's "favorite vehicle" thread (at The Trenches) the Jeep is my favorite. Congrats on a great find.

Thanks Guys!1 Yes Doug,sounds like I'm whining LOL...I'm going to have to wait for a true beater for another windshield....This is what i came up with for a Moto rev gong....I took the original gong hub and drilled the top....used some 16 gauge wire for arms and some rubber for the ends...works great...I may still pick up a repro that looks better...Walt 7000 Jeep NICE PICKUP 004

Probably a silly question Walt but was dies the motor rev do? Is it an engine sound effect? And if so does it works from records like the action man field radio?

Cheers

Mark

Not a silly question at all Mark...When you push the shifter forward,It completes the contact that drives the Moto Rev Motor...It makes contact with the flexible fiber plate just to make a motor sound...Not as complex as the Vintage Action Man Radio's they are VERY Complex!! cheers

I have always wondered why my other 7000 Jeep had a hole in the back of the passenger seat...I was on the phone with Rick "Joeman" last night and he told me that there is supposed to be a bracket there for the M1...This jeep has it:bounce: .....Walt 7000 Jeep NICE PICKUP 003

Your very welcome Mark....I was looking at both 7000 trailers today and noticed a difference in the two...The new trailer has solid red tail lights where my original has clear red lenses....Silly...but cool...Walt 7000 Jeep NICE PICKUP CGe3YzfVWy6j23XLPIPeSsntswXiNCyoTcg34uuEHA=w878-h408-no

Hello my Friends !! I came across this snazzy shovel with cover that fits my jeep pretty nicely...Not original but that's ok until I come across a Hasbro entrenching tool....Cheers Walter 7000 Jeep NICE PICKUP 002_opt+%252811%2529
