Attention D.C.-area residents: are you the owner—or know the owner—of this Jurassic Park-style Jeep? If so, there’s a group of dedicated JP fans who are desperately searching for you, in hopes you can help them live out their Jurassic Park group Halloween costume dreams. From Craigslist:
From one Jurassic Park (JP) fan to another–I’m trying to track down the amazing human being who drives a late model Jeep Wrangler that’s been converted into the Jurassic Park Jeep. My friends and I are very dedicated JP fans and are dressing as the entire main cast plus the Asian scientist for Halloween. We are offering $200 ($150 to the owner, $50 for a finders fee to help locate said owner) to allow us to drive the Jeep into a driveway of a friend’s Halloween party on Friday evening of October 31 around 8 in Glover Park. The owner will be there for the entire time it takes us (5 cast members) to drive up with the Jurassic Park theme playing from the car radio, get out, have people acknowledge what is going on, and walk into the party. It would take probably 10 minutes. We’d obviously be sober for this and you would get a lot of credit and appreciation from 5 dedicated JP fans plus a 50 person party for this intro. If anyone has any information on the car’s owner, please respond to the address below. A photo I took of the Jeep about a year and a half ago of the Jeep on Wisconsin Ave. in Glover is below. Thanks.
Unfortunately, it looks like the reply email on the Craigslist ad is expired, but according to this recent post on Jurassic Park Jeep forum (yes, that’s a real thing), he’s still trying to find the owner of said Jeep. As we at DCist are avid fans of both Jurassic Park and helping people out, we figured we’d help this person live out their JP fantasies this Halloween.
If you happen to be the owner—or know the owner—of said Jeep, or are the poster of the Craigslist ad, email tips@dcist.com. Killer Jurassic Park group costumes, like life, finds a way.
