1993 Jurassic Park Touring Ford Explorer

Description

A build 65 millions years in the making completed in just 8 months in 2018 with 700 test miles since it came out of paint and continues to change weekly working towards perfection. This has been one of the most fun builds I have done but like the rest, room must be made for the next build. I will say as the owner of severalmovie cars this one gets the most attention and jaw dropping reactions. Here is a partial list of what has been done to this Explorer in 2018. Westarted with a bone stockgrandma driven Explorer that needed nothing mechanically (that is hard to find but did locate one 300 miles away and picked it up). Then the transformation began.

Pick this up and you will soon be wondering "where's the goat?" or "where does he think he's going?"Get used to being asked to take pictures and people asking was itused the movie ... or my favorite "We love your Jeep" .... ugh its an Explorer ... lol ... if youcan't tell, we love this one.
I have been waiting availability on screen accurate dash and console but production has not been completed but I do have the contact for the buyer to contract with to build those. Inpreparation for that I have purchased the screen accurate Front and Rear Panasonic TV's along with Mac Mini with the 04 tour program and w/ relays and wiring to run the tour program, I will be including these to the new owner. I had planned to complete this section before moving on to the next project but it looks like we may be out 60-90 days before parts are available to finish.
Buyer responsible for all shippingarrangementsand isencouraged to see vehicle in person inBethlehem, GA as it really is stunning.Serious inquiries only and a 1,000 non-refundable deposit within 24 hours of auction end and balance in cash or certified funds before vehicle is released.There is no reserve and the auction starts atactual costs (not counting my personal labor) in the build so hoping a couple of you like it enough to start bidding so some profit can be made to allow me to continue to build these custom cars. FYI next build up the Back to the Future DeLorean Time Machine, if all works well. Happy Bidding!
