REVELL 77 Jeep CJ-7 Renegade 2’N 1 Assembly Manual

The vehicle we all know as the Jeep
the US Army was in the process of modernizing the armaments and equipment used by our armed forces.
One of the concepts the Army desired was an all-purpose small vehicle capable of carrying from 1 to 4 occupants as well as the ability to have smaller weapons mounted.
Because the potential areas that this vehicle was to be used might have poor or non-existent roadways, it had to have a four wheel drive or similar system.
The Army's call for respondents among the auto makers as to whom would submit designs and running prototypes for the new
eral purpose" vehicle resulted in three companies in the running for this potentially lucrative contract. In the end, the design from
Willys, a small American manufacturer, was the Army's choice. Because of Willys' limited production capability, the Army con-
tracted Ford to produce the Jeep ® based on the Willys design for the government. Over 640,000 were built during World
War II. They were tough, dependable and got more than a few American servicemen out of tight situations.
News of the Jeep's strong performance in the war effort traveled far and wide. In fact, at the end of WWII many ser-
®
vicemen wanted to bring their beloved Jeep
back home that wanted their own. So as soon as was possible, Willys started production on the first CJ,
which stood for Civilian Jeep . Those first CJs were not far removed from the military version, but
®
that was what the first post-war buyers wanted. These were basic, almost spartan vehicles, but also
great fun and unlike anything available to the American motoring public at the time.
Over the years, Jeeps ® have undergone many changes but the basic concept remains the
same. Your Revell kit builds up to an authentic replica of the CJ-7 model, which was first intro-
duced in 1976. The CJ-7 had a wheelbase over a foot longer than the original military version
which, when combined with more advanced tires and suspension, made for a much more comfort-
able ride. This was also the first Jeep
options.
You have two versions available of your Jeep
"suburban" version seen on streets and in parking lots across America. Or add some of the extra off-
