Colorado Native Turns a Plain '93 Wrangler into The Jurassic Park Jeep
Jordan Sowunmi — June 7, 2011 — Autos
The Jurassic Park Jeep is one of the most recognizable and iconic vehicles in the history of movies. In an effort to recreate the style and swagger of the Jurassic Park Jeep, one massive movie fan spent an arduous three years transforming a 1993 Jeep Wrangler into an exact replica of the 4X4 from the memorable movie.
The idea came about when a Colorado man and his friends started brainstorming ideas for comedic Halloween costumes. They decided on Ghostbusters for that year, but the idea spurred further movie tribute creativity in the man. Soon after buying a damaged $4,000 Jeep Wrangler, the Colorado native began stripping down the damaged Wrangler and putting it back together, keeping his eye on the Jurassic Park DVD cover to ensure he nailed the essential details of the vehicle.
A look at these pictures and it's clear that this Jurassic Park Jeep replica is as close to the real thing as it gets.
