You did all that for $1,800? I've seen quite a few JP vehicles, a few of them explorers, and no one made that convex roof, let alone made it for under $10,000. Your heart is clearly in it. You have my respect.
dunno if anyone gives a damn but if you're bored like me atm then you can watch pretty much all of the latest series on InstaFlixxer. Been binge watching with my gf for the last months xD
Thats incredible work, dont knock yourself for those small inaccuracys what you did by yourself with 1800 dollars is pretty mind blowing. Goodwork man.
As a former owner of a stock Eddie Bauer one of these, and a diehard JP1 fan, I can truly enjoy this build and the video is great! I would get some movie sound bites to blare out a custom horn: “Now you might actually have some dinosaurs on your on your dinosaur tour?” “ITS THE OTHER CAR!” “Where’s the goat?”
Can't believe you actually did this. I'd think about doing something like this, then maybe work on it for a week and give up. Excellent patience, ingenuity and artistic ability.
Cool stuff. One thing to remember is the average onlooker hasn't studied what the explorer is supposed to look like. If you didn't show me the parts missing I doubt I would notice
I suppose I like to highlight the parts missing and the flaws , to show that I really do know what it's supposed to be like. I don't want it to seem like I'm generalizing it and don't care for the original or how it's supposed to look. That and people will point out the parts missing or the flaws in the comments and it's a nice way to show I'm aware of it ahead of time.
Outstanding production. I enjoyed your video work as much as your DIY build. As a prop and model maker for theme parks and museums, I am impressed considering what you started with.
it's the first I see a replica like this, it's an amazing work and you respect everything, you have a talent, keep it up ! It's not just a paint and stickers like almost every cars.
1.800 Dollars? Now I have a new Quest, to drive this in Germany too...Grat Car, lucky Guy...That's Passion! it looks so authentic, even if -like you said- it might not be perfect. I wish you, this car runs forever.
Creds man.. Even tho it's not 100% accurate, and has flaws here and there. It's one of the best JP explorers i have seen. The roof helped a LOT. i have seen many "accurate" recreations with screen accurate parts and what not, but the paint job is off, and they are missing the roof. Which is essential IMO. Follow your dream man. I'm sure one day you will get it 100% right. Even tho it's good enough as it is. Thanks for sharing
An absolutely terrific video and a wonderful job... very, very well done and it brought a real smile to my face for sure... you should enter it in some film festivals...
Very nice recreation. Looks very accurate and well put together even with the areas you pointed out as mistakes. I imagine you get alot of looks while driving around in this car.
Next step: flip it, crush it, throw it off a ledge, suspend it from a huge tree, and then drop it headfirst into the ground. THEN drive it and see how many looks you get!
honestly dude. you started out i was ready to throw rocks at you for how lame your rebuild was. but it was just the way you edited video. you are very innovative and clever. and you did awsome
You've captured the true essence of the truck. The little things like the stripe positions and correct gradient really sell it, and help make it convincing; the trucks you showed where they'd got that wrong were instantly and obviously incorrect, whereas it's much easier to forgive the errors on yours even if you know they're there.
Im a fan of jurassic park cars but man u outdid ur self on this one ur blessed man .. good for u u made it and not only that u did awesome i would love to have a ganja drive with ya lol..
Man, this video is beautifully done. I love it! Also the whole project is just bad ass and I bet this video gets some hits with the new movie coming out soon. If I ever stumble upon a decent income I am totally doing this. Great job man! Edit: Consider sharing this on the 'Jurassic Park Motor Pool' facebook page.
Totally awesome for the amount of money spent. I bet you turn heads everywhere you go. This should be a tutorial of how to get the attention of a $35,000 car for only $1,800! haha ps. Props to mom for the faux wood grain! is she an artist? Looks great!
Dude this is so bad ass. Wish I could post pics in comments, my neighbor has Jurassic Park jeep. He bought real decals and matched paint. Ps I have 3 real life living dinosaurs. I own 3 sulcatas
I was gonna make fun of u ...for doing all this by ur self .. like "haha look at this kid " .but the at the end "wow! Look at this kid " u have awesome car i enjoyed ur vid
Now THAT is what I call a fan-made replica. I wish the Jurassic Park area in the Islands of Adventure area at Universal Studios in Orlando in Florida had a Jurassic Park Jungle Explorer ride with two Ford cars and animatronic dinosaurs behind fake electric fences. The engineers at Universal Studios would've made the exterior and interior of the Jungle Explorer Ford cars 100% accurate exactly just like how they looked of the movie.
When I was a child at the Columbus State Fair in Ohio, I had the fortune to actually get a close up of one of the originals from the movie itself. It was among the automobiles on display at the fair that year, it was along side the Jurassic Park Jeep. Sadly, you were not allowed to touch or get inside. hehe
excellent job, great attention to detail and you cant beat the budget, ive always wanted to do this and i will probably attempt it some time. will consult your vid too, definitely is the way to go
You did all that for $1,800? I've seen quite a few JP vehicles, a few of them explorers, and no one made that convex roof, let alone made it for under $10,000. Your heart is clearly in it. You have my respect.
Also, who the hell downvoted this video? Serious?
He really did spare no expense
best comment on a youtube vid!! love it
Ahh yes..you won the internet for today.
Made me bust out laughing 🤣
dunno if anyone gives a damn but if you're bored like me atm then you can watch pretty much all of the latest series on InstaFlixxer. Been binge watching with my gf for the last months xD
@Frederick Reece Definitely, I've been using instaflixxer for since december myself =)
Thats incredible work, dont knock yourself for those small inaccuracys what you did by yourself with 1800 dollars is pretty mind blowing. Goodwork man.
That "gauge cam" is bloody genius. The video feedback looks really 90's-ish. Well done!
Wow, this is probably the most screen accurate JP Explorer around. Killer job. Love how you did the gauges. Very clever.
Don't ever let anyone hold you back kid! Great job.
Wow what an excellent Explorer. Let's just hope it doesn't get flipped by a T-Rex.
+Jordan Little : Flipped and crushed.
or by firestone tires
Or your mom.
MalliTrAxxZz or your horrible life

I would get some movie sound bites to blare out a custom horn:
“Now you might actually have some dinosaurs on your on your dinosaur tour?”
“ITS THE OTHER CAR!”
“Where’s the goat?”
I'll admit, some of your mods seemed hokey at first; but your work arounds are awesome. That camera bit is genius.
Random Musings hola
The most important question. Are the headlights running off the battery or the track? Mr. Arnold is concerned.
That the lawyer? I hope a dino eats him.
The lawyer is Donald. Mr. Arnold is the black guy who gets eaten by the Raptor while trying to restore power.
Thanks, been awhile since I have seen the movie.
Hold onto your butts
Can't believe you actually did this.
I'd think about doing something like this, then maybe work on it for a week and give up.
Excellent patience, ingenuity and artistic ability.
As a kid this was always my favorite car
I agree definitely the coolest vehicle for 1800$ nice work, I am amazed how well it looks considering how much you have spent on it.

Local Craig's has the v8 model for $1000

Is that an automatic or manual transmission? I never drive a manual transmission before. I drive an SUV but it is a Toyota Highlander.
You are tremendously creative. Amazing job.
I live in wisconsin too! also i pretty much love jurassic Park and Jurassic World as much as you!
You accomplished an amazing task! Your honesty, suggestions, and creativity make the video fun to watch. Thanks for sharing!
I like how honest you sound. Nice cinematography with the narration. Very easy to watch
thats what i call working with what u have i salute u sir
Outstanding production. I enjoyed your video work as much as your DIY build. As a prop and model maker for theme parks and museums, I am impressed considering what you started with.
it's the first I see a replica like this, it's an amazing work and you respect everything, you have a talent, keep it up !
It's not just a paint and stickers like almost every cars.
That was ahead of its time. Was the cutest 4×4 ever! Even today still look nice!!!
My goodness. CLOSE ENOUGH!! Fantastic job. It's inspiring.

Damn I feel like I'm watching "how's it made" Jurassic Park edition. Great video man!!!

NESherv maybe have some vomit in the car.
A couple of T. rex bite marks
And blood stains from a severred goat leg....
Crouching slightly in front of you..."how did you do this?".
You lean down and whisper..."I'll show you"
Little money , dedication, and lots of elbow grease! Awesome build bro!
OMG dude you did a great job!!! looks amazing!!!
duuuude, that camera feedback for the cluster was definitely neat. I liked what you did there
Oh my god the amount of work that you put into this is crazy.
Low-key would drive this everywhere. don't care what people think.
Pretty awesome! I've always loved the JP Explorer.
A lot of hard work. Great job. I appreciate all the hard work
Much respect for the build, not something I would do to mine, but finely someone did it right 👍
honestly dude. you started out i was ready to throw rocks at you for how lame your rebuild was. but it was just the way you edited video. you are very innovative and clever. and you did awsome

I feel like if you really have a passion what you do it'll show , even if you don't have the ability to do it as well as you'd like. lol
I'm learning to drive and I'm planning to get a Ford Explorer your video helps out thanks
Congrats!! Nice job! Well done my friend very nice job!👍👍👍
A hell of a project ! A dream ! Congrats !
If you can make it work, doesn't matter how much you invest. Great build btw
You did a phenomenal job for what you had to work with it looks great
such an awesome project, I bet you get so many people that walk up and ask about it when you go to the gas station lol
Good work, my favorite thing about those explorers is the moon roof.
This was awesome! My dream cars are the three Mercedes Benz from the Lost World :3
Im a fan of jurassic park cars but man u outdid ur self on this one ur blessed man .. good for u u made it and not only that u did awesome i would love to have a ganja drive with ya lol..
Bulls on paraade!!!! Rock on brotha! It looks straight out the movie.
Definitely drew me in. Was disappointed when it was over. Good luck finding the rest of the pieces needed to complete the build.
When you started I thought it would never work, but in the end it looked great 👍
Awesome! Well done sir. You're an inspiration.
EBay has those license plates for like $20! They have a bunch!
It would be cool to see snow videos of it, but with the salt they put down here man... I wouldn’t take the chance!
Awesome video man!
dude what an amazing build, fantastic job!
Better than most others. Great work
That’s fabulous. Awesome work.
I love how you did the gauge cluster! Good work
whats funny is even with the camera and tv included , the gauges are still analog lol
Forgot to say: can’t afford to make that car so the best I could do was a custom model of it!
That isn't a poor version it's awesome
Amazing! Great work... very cool. I'm totally jealous and impressed. Can't wait to see some updates! Keep up the good work.
I have nothing to say... Awesome work !
INCREDIBLE Job!!
Really great work and great editing to tell the story!
Your dedication is awesome, I built a really detailed Herbie replica, I feel your pain on the little things.
Pretty darn impressive for the budget and all the custom work you did. Nice work!
I love it and your passion & dedication
Excellent job my friend love how you paid attention to every detail it’s perfect in my eyes don’t sweat the Small in perfections your very talented !
This is going to be REALLY helpful on my own Explorer build. Thanks for posting!
This is amazing! I have a Jurassic Jeep myself JP-18, thanks for sharing your experience!
A descent attempt. Well done fella.
Stellar work
Man, this video is beautifully done. I love it! Also the whole project is just bad ass and I bet this video gets some hits with the new movie coming out soon. If I ever stumble upon a decent income I am totally doing this.
Great job man!
Edit: Consider sharing this on the 'Jurassic Park Motor Pool' facebook page.
You’re forgetting the thumbnail
Very impressed. Good job.
I love it i never seen the original with a window top i love it SOOO MUCHHH
Totally awesome for the amount of money spent.
I bet you turn heads everywhere you go. This should be a tutorial of how to get the attention of a $35,000 car for only $1,800! haha
ps. Props to mom for the faux wood grain! is she an artist? Looks great!
this is my favorite youtube video
Good ingenuity, That can setup for the remotes gauges was clever. keep up the inventing! you have vision.
That roof is amazing to have for any vehicle

Great attention to detail 👍

WOW excellent work

You did an excellent job man!

Haha we are all kids inside ~
@@Themaxleydog u did a good job and if you wanna do those editions and fix those mistakes u made now is the time.
Great job! This is terrific
Well done! The thing with custom vehicles is they're never really finished. There's always something you will want to update/change.
Now THAT is what I call a fan-made replica. I wish the Jurassic Park area in the Islands of Adventure area at Universal Studios in Orlando in Florida had a Jurassic Park Jungle Explorer ride with two Ford cars and animatronic dinosaurs behind fake electric fences. The engineers at Universal Studios would've made the exterior and interior of the Jungle Explorer Ford cars 100% accurate exactly just like how they looked of the movie.
I would certainly ride it! :)
velociraptor4you Same here! :)
***** :)
pretty cool project well done !
Amazing build and amazing work! That looks really amazing!
does it have an interactive CD rom?
Paul Kingery unfortunately it's all just run by a netbook now , no spinning cd's anymore!
Themaxleydog
Presumably with the voice of Richard Kiley? Lol
When I was a child at the Columbus State Fair in Ohio, I had the fortune to actually get a close up of one of the originals from the movie itself. It was among the automobiles on display at the fair that year, it was along side the Jurassic Park Jeep. Sadly, you were not allowed to touch or get inside. hehe
Good job 👍 really cool stuff
I once saw one of these on the road. It was beautiful, and I wish I had time to take a photo.
excellent job, great attention to detail and you cant beat the budget, ive always wanted to do this and i will probably attempt it some time. will consult your vid too, definitely is the way to go
Wow incredible job man!!!
Real nice work!
