This has got to be one of my favorite threads now...... You do amazing work my friend...simply amazing!!
And your english is just fine too. Hell, even if this thread was in spanish I would still have a great time with it.
Oh......put me down (placing an order) for the first mini fj40 you build..I need one for my train sets.
 
recently I try to find a new front door catches for my fj40 and they are no longer available!!
so I keep serch and I found that the 75 fj40 ambulance door use "the same" kinde
I check this just on the pics for a ccot.
I got them and when I check if they where the same I notice that the rear ambulance door are a bit shorter
I dont know if this is the diference bewen them or is just a factory manufacture slice problem.
does enybody notice this??

Very impressed with your attention to detail. Would like to see pictures of your workshop - I bet it is clean! Having the right tools helps too. All of the parts you have shared have a professional touch. Keep up the great work!:clap:
