Thanks, James! ( I like the pictures).
Bob: I'm not a jeep guy, but I think, maybe (?) the top it was folded up and stashed under the passenger seat. (?)
The Tamiya kit has a piece of stowage there. I maybe/am probably totally wrong. :idonno
Some expert please chime in.
Cheers,
Bill

Mats the jeep isnt too bad, but yes some small parts that will try me. The gun though is full of tinyness. It will be a real test. But I think it could be fun. Markings are all for early jeeps.

Have the same set of guys,James, they are very nice (the puppy is cute to
Good luck with the Bronco jeep, is there many small parts in it?

You are correct!
The following excerpt is from page 218 of TM 9-803 ¼-"TON 4 x 4 TRUCK (WILLYS-OVERLAND MODEL MB and
FORD MODEL GPW):
"170. TOP.
a. Installation. Loosen the two wing screws at the pivot brackets (fig. 4). Slide tubular bows back out of front bracket. Install front ends in rear brackets, and tighten winged screws. Allow front bow
to drop down over seats. Remove top from under right front seat. Attach top to fasteners at top of windshield. Stretch top over bow and down to body back panel. Place straps in metal loops, and attach
to body panel; stretch top, and buckle straps. Raise front bow into position at bow flaps, and snap flaps around bow. The curtains are attached in the conventional way with snap fasteners.
b. Removal. Remove curtains by releasing snap fasteners. Unsnap bow flaps, and lower front bow on front seat. Unbuckle top straps at body rear panel. Unsnap top at top of windshield, and remove. Fold top and stow under right front seat. Loosen wing screws in top rear brackets. Fold front bow against rear bow. Raise bows out of rear brackets, and insert lower ends in front brackets. Tighten rear bracket screws."
Puppy? What puppy? If it has one, I may need to buy a set just for that!

Two new kits came. One was a surprise as I didn't order it due to the price but I am glad it was sent as it is very nice!

The MSRP on this truck is $85USD, but you can see it is nicely detailed:

Not at all! I hope you enjoy the kit as it looks to be better than their first series of pickups.
