I've not seen this kit before, keen to see how it goes.

From what I have heard, this kit goes together very nicely. It is a curbside kit, but I suppose you can put an engine in it since the hood is removable.

Thanks Deano! OMG!!! He painted his wheels silver! I painted them silver because I hate black wheels! They blend into the ground and I prefer to have silver or even chrome plated wheels because they are part of the vehicle and they should be seen! The interior and the chassis/suspension are coming along.

Thanks Mike! I keep looking at it to see if there is something else I could add that is within my skillset.

Looking good Mike, what about orange inserts in the seats to lift the interior?

Deano, that's a good idea, but it's not the look I am going for. Thanks for the suggestion! I added some detail to the grille, lights and front bumper that had enthused me from a picture on Google Images. I used the body color on the grille letters, headlights and the front bumper for a different look.

Been seeing this on around at Hobby Lobby as of late and after looking through your build of it, I'm surprised that it doesn't come with an engine. Nevertheless, your progress is coming along nicely so far Mike.

Thanks Joe! For the size box that it has, I was surprised that it didn't have an engine! There is definitely room in the box for another couple of sprues of engine parts. I saw someone else's build (I forget where) that had an engine in it, so it can be done!

I reckon that's given it a big lift inside!

Definitely jogged things up a bit on that interior Mike.

Thanks Deano, Joe and nyratrod! I hated the black wheels and the interior needed something to jazz up the solid grey interior.

Thanks Joe! The SUV is almost finished. Just needs some polishing and a few decals.
