So much Jeepin’ going on! Really nice build, Matt!

Represent your brand and talent would be my thinking on paint. Take that large SBG decal and lay it out on the driver door with a 30 degree counter clockwise turn. Carry those colors through the body and finish with a light patina ( maybe just powders for now) to make it look like it wasn’t painted two days prior. 😂

Of course you would paint on the decal for the end result . Easy peasy 😉

My OCD would be going nuts on wheelbase. I can't imagine being under the gun with 3 classes without getting substantial seat time. The more you know your rig, the better, imo. Love watching your builds , Matt. Hemi orange. With the black, it will be beautiful.

Damn Matt that rig is coming along nicely and looks so impressive. This has turned out to be such an entertaining series between you and Josh . My son is also hooked on the series as he and I both share the passion of this crazy hobby. About 30 years ago I brought him into the local hobby shop to pick out his first model and all those many years later were building a crawler course in a designated area on our property. He recently thanked me for introducing him to the hobby and stated that when he’s building his current project ( RC4WD Toyota Hilux) all the crazy, nasty stuff going on around us all just disappears and the build is the only thing that matters at that moment. A mini mind holiday so to speak, something we can all benefit from even if it’s just for a short time. Im building up my FJ40 to be the best show truck that I can make it, my personal shelf queen since I’ve got others to bash around with. Big Thanks to you and Josh for this series, it’s entertaining, informative,funny as hell and more all at the same time. I can’t wait until you head down south and we get to see all that footage, remember your taking all the rest of us Canadians along with you, weather ya want to or not.

That green the older Defenders have would look pretty cool I think

I really liked the bumper Harley showed in the latest scale news.

The 2 door 'gladiator' is badass.

I’ll first start by saying that this build to date is one of your best yet , you and Josh have really pulled out all the tricks out of the bag for sure . Matt your color pallet is usually a subtle dark green , land rovery style , possibly a smooth dark brown , both with gold or copper wheels. Last but least a smooth but subtle gigantic chunky silver or graphite with blue wheels , all with tasteful sickness and 🔥I can’t wait to see what you decide to roll with.

Much enjoyed presentation, quite a lot of work to put it mildly. Colourwise, I had a look 'on the internet' and saw a bright white new JT model with two separate matt copper brown inserts if you will on the hood and two stripes on the flanks, the sidefenders adorned with 'Scrambler' lettering. A suggestion, found on the gladiator forum. Thank you as per usual. Hope you have smashing time in Alabama ✌😎

Color suggestions: Deep yellow ochre mixture or a lighter slate blue. No matter the color choice...on a nine step value scale I would be at a number 5 grey or lighter so that your wheels, bumpers, and fenders have nice contrast with the paint color to accentuate your handy work. I think it would be great to see a custom color that is not available on a 1:1 from the factory. I feel like all I see out there is sand, khaki, olive, blue, gray, white, red...You always come up with original colors, so we all know it will be great, whatever the choice...

Id like to see the Class 1 bright green 💚

Hydro Blue Pearl, as I think the two-door prototype was also blue. A single can of Duplicolor from the local auto parts store would likely cover the whole body and probably be cheaper than a case of Tamiya paint. Or paint it the same color as Josh's real one, cause that would be funny.

Love the new bumpers! Definitely trim those rear quarters to tidy that area up, or maybe a twin tube rear bumper, ala 1990?

You must use SBG official colors just make them standout and pop off the truck! Love love love your rig. All the luck to you in April at the nats!

i wont go pla on the inner fenders, it will add unecessary weight... you can make them using thin sheets of aluminium just like Josh did, pressed with a design and it would look even better. i am counting you can easily reach 59 pts without a 3d interior which will add so much weight, the points include bomber interior, hopefully becoming a staple for comp rigs hehehe
