I found this site by accident just the other day and thought I would post up my Isuzu. I have been a frequent lurker on vintage Tamiya and enjoy all of Wyomings work and many others that are here from that site.
My isuzu is currently running on a RE-re Pajero chassis with both axles locked and an integy 55t motor. The sand ramps, bungee cords, snorkel, and shovel are hand made. the roof rack is actually a bird feeder. the roof lights are from the F-350 kit and are filled with LEDs from a wreath lighting kit I found at Wal-Mart. Let me know what ya think.

Made some updates to the 'Zu. Kept breaking the front valance (part below the bumper) so I took a deep breath, and cut it off. mounted this bumper on in its place. then i flipped the runningboards and added styrene diamond plate.
whaddya think?
Here are a couple of action type shots as well.

That is looking pretty sweet. Just adding things like the styrene diamond plate really adds to it!

Very nice looking Mu. I wish I would have kept mine. I had a Jeep shell too but I sold it for good money. I love the action shots also. I loved my Pajero when I was in St George Utah at their large crawling comp. I was the only one with one there. I hope more peeps get some soon.

Nice details. This really is an under-used body. Along with the Honda CRV.
