And that makes the car COMPLETED. Phew! Almost 4 years of work and money saved.

I added some smaller decals.

That's a parody with a Brazilian famous dinosaur from comic books, Horácio.

I loved seeing the Bandeirante used for a JP jeep. My best friend used to have one of those back in the day, says it's one of the best cars he ever had. I especially enjoyed the Horacic Park sticker, I was living in Brazil at the time that comic was released. Brings back good memories.

That's very nice, FiremanSpock, the Bandeirante is a great vehicle, I love it! The Horacic Park (and the 2 sequels) is available on internet also: http://turmadamonica.uol.com.br/quadrinhos

Dirty fuel made me dismount the tank and clean it.

The front tire became completely damaged. I had to buy new ones.

I bought a piece of rubber mat and cutted it to protect the vehicle's floor, making my own carpets. I followed the hard top color.

I decided to put back the original air filter. The Apollo K&N filter is good, but it allows the outcome of too much noise from the engine. When I install a turbine, I'll put it back.

I installed a anti-roll bar. That icreased a lot the security when driving.

This is clearly a labor of love. It's great that you have humor in your decals. Too many movie cars are too serious. Well done.
