Jeep Construction
The designs are based on a set of drawings from a Spanish website. To the best of my knowledge, the documentation is free to be distributed. The author and a copy is available below. I have scaled the drawings to 1/6 scale for my own build to obtain a roughly 52 cm x 24 cm base. Jeep tyres have eluded me now for many years and I refuse to buy them as they are 4 times the cost of the Jeep model alone. So lawn mower wheels have been used. I will investigate making my own tyres sometime in the future.
I recommend building this model in cardboard first to get a feel for the project before launching into a hardware version. Thank you to Toni Mauricio for your drawings and Tardus.net for the practical build instructions. Makes things a lot easier. The link for the templates is below. I also have a pdf copy should that not work out.

"Lucky there was no armour on the beach. Now I have plenty of work to do sir!"
"Great work Joe, we are listening so you should receive a shipment of buckets and spades on the next wave for your effort"
