Hi All, Just a quick question. Are the external dimensions of the RV bodies an exact replica as the CJ7? I was considering a canvas hood that is made for one of these Jeeps if it was somewhere in the ball park.

Hi. A CJ7 top won't fit, unfortunately. The body tub is the correct dimensions, but the windscreen frame is too short.

Hi, does anyone know if doors would fit or be made to fit without too much hassle ?

One thing I can say, is that the screen frame on my RV is one inch wider across it's length than a Jeep CJ7. This wound tend to indicate that the body tub of the RV is, in fact, slightly wider than the Jeep it was copied from.
I don't think Jeep doors would be easy to fit because of the windscreen, again. The angle (rake) of the frame is more upright on the RV. The doors have to close against the frame, so you would be left with a gap.
