Technically, it wouldn`t be allowed but I let it in since we didn`t have many "creative" people out there for this month...and it was a cute and creative idea at that. "Technically" it is their "Jeep" so I ruled it could stay as the exception to the rule as I stressed the creativity part and it was very creative.
What this means though, is I don`t want to see people making "Jeeps" out of anything in future contests. It has to be their "real" Jeep. It`s cool for this months and I like it just as much as the other 3 entries so it`s all good.

It's all good. Like I said (I think) earlier, this was last year right after I got the Jeep so this was not put together in a rush for this contest - it was an original idea by my son a long time ago. "Technically" Buzzer's post is oversized with the 800x600 picture size but I like it and I've been trying for months now with an occassional comment to get the rules bumped up to 800x600 - just looks so much better at that size
(hint, hint).
I coundn't believe it when my son demanded it, not asked, but demanded - and then, my wife said "ok" while I'm still standing there like "how in the heck am I gonna do, make, what???" I at least made him say please after my wife had already approved it! Gotta try to teach some manners ya know!
Matching the paint was a bear, and he had to have all the Liberty logos on it in the right places - Jeep on the hood, Liberty on the sides, CRD on the rear, had to be khaki, had to have a sunroof, ect, ect, ect.
Not what I expected from, at the time, a 3ry old. We still have it, it's sitting on a shelf in the garage right in front of the real CRD, like it's little twin
