Jurassic Park Ford Explorer with Glass roof and Interior.

[@fifthrider]

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.

[@fifthrider]

Also, who the hell downvoted this video? Serious?

[@unknownartist113]

He really did spare no expense

[@moonlinesify]

best comment on a youtube vid!! love it

[@drivewaystar6485]

Ahh yes..you won the internet for today.

[@Osiris1080]

Made me bust out laughing 🤣

[@frederickreece4256]

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

[@russellzakai6798]

@Frederick Reece Definitely, I've been using instaflixxer for since december myself =)

[@jonfraser3269]

Thats incredible work, dont knock yourself for those small inaccuracys what you did by yourself with 1800 dollars is pretty mind blowing. Goodwork man.

[@JohnSmith-wj2wd]

That "gauge cam" is bloody genius. The video feedback looks really 90's-ish. Well done!

[@cosplaymutt2089]

Wow, this is probably the most screen accurate JP Explorer around. Killer job. Love how you did the gauges. Very clever.

[@duck853]

Don't ever let anyone hold you back kid! Great job.

[@mikebee515]

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?”

[@billwilmington8284]

Wow what an excellent Explorer. Let's just hope it doesn't get flipped by a T-Rex.

[@BullworthGraduate]

+Jordan Little : Flipped and crushed.

[@gatewaysolo104]

or by firestone tires

[@MalliTrAxxZz]

Or your mom.

[@NW_GTA]

MalliTrAxxZz or your horrible life

[@stuna101a]

The most important question. Are the headlights running off the battery or the track? Mr. Arnold is concerned.

[@TheCaptainSplatter]

That the lawyer? I hope a dino eats him.

[@matthewserdynski1699]

The lawyer is Donald. Mr. Arnold is the black guy who gets eaten by the Raptor while trying to restore power.

[@TheCaptainSplatter]

Thanks, been awhile since I have seen the movie.

[@EyexXx05]

Hold onto your butts

[@missinformation5451]

As a kid this was always my favorite car

[@mrlizzard94]

I'll admit, some of your mods seemed hokey at first; but your work arounds are awesome. That camera bit is genius.

[@jujoboveda]

Random Musings hola

[@tis8411]

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.

[@Naarth]

I live in wisconsin too! also i pretty much love jurassic Park and Jurassic World as much as you!

[@BenJaminLongTime]

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.

[@chrishuber8930]

Ben P. Elbow greese

[@TheBikemaster94]

Local Craig's has the v8 model for $1000

[@michaelkaybecker]

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

[@Themaxleydog]

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.

[@plushbatfan]

Themaxleydog Is that an automatic or manual transmission? I never drive a manual transmission before. I drive an SUV but it is a Toyota Highlander.

[@sharonorsak4397]

You accomplished an amazing task! Your honesty, suggestions, and creativity make the video fun to watch. Thanks for sharing!

[@spaceye]

You are tremendously creative. Amazing job.

[@ChristopherOvrebo]

I like how honest you sound. Nice cinematography with the narration. Very easy to watch

[@arrowguy173]

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.

[@saulb2488]

thats what i call working with what u have i salute u sir

[@elhion]

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.

[@starwalker6002]

That was ahead of its time. Was the cutest 4×4 ever! Even today still look nice!!!

[@marcohallbjorn8460]

My goodness. CLOSE ENOUGH!! Fantastic job. It's inspiring.

[@AndyMcKagan]

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.

[@superbmediacontentcreator]

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...

[@KrogenDragon]

Oh my god the amount of work that you put into this is crazy.

[@Pr0DlgY]

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

[@riveranimations]

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.

[@zacharychavez3482]

duuuude, that camera feedback for the cluster was definitely neat. I liked what you did there

[@Emilthehun]

Little money , dedication, and lots of elbow grease! Awesome build bro!

[@superduty4828]

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

[@classicgames9947]

A lot of hard work. Great job. I appreciate all the hard work

[@RealUnimportant]

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.

[@Themaxleydog]

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

[@theinkslicer]

Low-key would drive this everywhere. don't care what people think.

[@ssnoc]

When you started I thought it would never work, but in the end it looked great 👍

[@hjordan01]

OMG dude you did a great job!!! looks amazing!!!

[@FriendlyNeighborhoodSnyderMan]

Crouching slightly in front of you..."how did you do this?". You lean down and whisper..."I'll show you"

[@NESherv]

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!

[@brokentilebench]

NESherv maybe have some vomit in the car.

[@garrett3948]

A couple of T. rex bite marks

[@zacharychavez3482]

And blood stains from a severred goat leg....

[@DanisD60]

Definitely drew me in. Was disappointed when it was over. Good luck finding the rest of the pieces needed to complete the build.

[@gabriel-bl4ckh4wk-6]

A hell of a project ! A dream ! Congrats !

[@Lsutton04_]

You did a phenomenal job for what you had to work with it looks great

[@Davidovar34]

Pretty awesome! I've always loved the JP Explorer.

[@RikuSpirit]

Good work, my favorite thing about those explorers is the moon roof.

[@definitely_notme4112]

I love how you did the gauge cluster! Good work

[@Themaxleydog]

whats funny is even with the camera and tv included , the gauges are still analog lol

[@definitely_notme4112]

Forgot to say: can’t afford to make that car so the best I could do was a custom model of it!

[@namesomega3694]

If you can make it work, doesn't matter how much you invest. Great build btw

[@MrParkFan]

I'm learning to drive and I'm planning to get a Ford Explorer your video helps out thanks

[@yellow5n]

dude what an amazing build, fantastic job!

[@nickfortunato2938]

Much respect for the build, not something I would do to mine, but finely someone did it right 👍

[@PeaceLoveAndGuns]

Really great work and great editing to tell the story!

[@wildernessfieldjournal8211]

Pretty darn impressive for the budget and all the custom work you did. Nice work!

[@johnsullivan937]

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

[@7xshadowxerox7]

This was awesome! My dream cars are the three Mercedes Benz from the Lost World :3

[@watchandenjoy7898]

That roof is amazing to have for any vehicle

[@BarcelonaBlitzer]

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!

[@xxwes997xx]

this is really impressive foe the budget and what you had to work with, especially that dash

[@redtiptattoos9261]

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..

[@michaelfiggins7931]

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

[@starwalker6002]

Congrats!! Nice job! Well done my friend very nice job!👍👍👍

[@herbienbrian2]

Your dedication is awesome, I built a really detailed Herbie replica, I feel your pain on the little things.

[@mattgotsskill]

iv seen screen used vehicles with less details then that... you did a really good job

[@ericbazinga]

I once saw one of these on the road. It was beautiful, and I wish I had time to take a photo.

[@ramkinstuff9140]

That’s fabulous. Awesome work.

[@bruiserdave2424]

Better than most others. Great work

[@MEVA1104]

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 !

[@skoptsy4851]

Bulls on paraade!!!! Rock on brotha! It looks straight out the movie.

[@nebulous6660]

Awesome! Well done sir. You're an inspiration.

[@montes605]

I love it i never seen the original with a window top i love it SOOO MUCHHH

[@Bassin_withaustin]

That isn't a poor version it's awesome

[@drewpzoot]

A descent attempt. Well done fella.

[@sylvainobset8551]

I have nothing to say... Awesome work !

[@InterestingTed]

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.

[@jamesodom4980]

You’re forgetting the thumbnail

[@nyrangersfan6325]

EBay has those license plates for like $20! They have a bunch!

[@colehalford1893]

Great attention to detail 👍

[@HeavenUpsideDown]

I love it and your passion & dedication

[@maywest380]

INCREDIBLE Job!!

[@kole726]

You did an excellent job man!

[@MrNeonz-fk2ky]

I was once in Ireland with some family and saw a Jurassic park tour car, looked like the one from the movie, driving by our hotel

[@glibbis]

LOOKS FINE. NICE WORK!

[@familyemail2649]

little late here but looks awesome dude great job dont set yourself short better job than most

[@terranovnicek1567]

Awesome work! I want to make a Jurassic Park YJ someday

[@liamcolotti6824]

I heard the bulls in parade in the background good shit right there

[@myveryfirstname]

Stellar work

[@BACKYARDFILMS1985]

No way dude ,like a year ago I really wanted to make a jurassic explorer and watched this vide alot.I am obsessed with back to the future and theme park rides and just realized you're the same person who has the dash video,I also saw your comment on another guys homemade back to the future ride.

[@jejeroy]

pretty cool project well done !

[@jamsarenice8670]

this is my favorite youtube video

[@Alte.Kameraden]

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

[@Verbatim47]

This is amazing! I have a Jurassic Jeep myself JP-18, thanks for sharing your experience!

[@PoolsideCigarReviews]

Amazing! Great work... very cool. I'm totally jealous and impressed. Can't wait to see some updates! Keep up the good work.

[@stephenhunter70]

Well done! The thing with custom vehicles is they're never really finished. There's always something you will want to update/change.

[@paulkingery7175]

does it have an interactive CD rom?

[@Themaxleydog]

Paul Kingery unfortunately it's all just run by a netbook now , no spinning cd's anymore!

[@ctphillyfan7531]

Themaxleydog Presumably with the voice of Richard Kiley? Lol

[@KnightJacques]

This roof is T-REX proof ? Well done. One of coolest car !

[@carlosangeles6956]

Wow incredible job man!!!

[@nickrenda9985]

This almost makes me want to build one for myself

[@dumpsterstu4474]

Great build alway s had a thing for this car in particular I think it was the paint and dome that got me.

[@djfusion83]

Very impressed. Good job.

[@christophermetz1550]

WOW excellent work

[@MrGabrielJude]

I wish the cinematic sequence in the closing you drove through town and caught some onlooker expressions, or showcasing it at a local movie theater, comic convention, or comic shop parking lot.That would’ve made the vid epic. Overall nicely done, I’d like to hear if you might have plans to make it a daily driver and properly water proof the thing, because it’s screaming, “drive me in the rain with the roof lamps on!!”

[@davidmora6554]

You make my dream real 😍 beautiful car love it

[@ronime]

This is going to be REALLY helpful on my own Explorer build. Thanks for posting!

[@ezekiel9788]

Wow I work with plexi a lot. Never thought about heat lamps. I have tons of high output bulbs
