looking for two kinds of kits.

Yes, Hobby Fan does a conversion set as well. It is only $150+, what a bargain. Here is a review of their great set. I was listing the cheaper of the two. You still have to buy the Italeri M923A1 or M925 kit as well.

I can't believe the price of the Hobby Fan stuff, totally nuts. I am definitely not a Fan of their version of the Hobby.

i pretty sure that Hobby Fan does one also. check the SprueBrothers website....do a google for SprueBrothers

Thanks I think I will find somthing else.
I may be well off but not that well.
And my wife will kill me.

Is this what you mean by MLVW?


If so, it is an M35A2 2 1/2 ton truck with bigger(?)/a differnt pattern wheels and tires. AFV Club does a US M35A2. All you would have to do is modify/change the wheeels and add any other Canadian specific items. You could get the single wheel hubs and hard top out of a Revell M34 kit. The M34 had a different bed and the kit is old, takes a lot of work to get it looking good. You would still need to find replacement tires though.

AFV Club M35A2:


Revell M34:


Sorry, no wrecker kit is readily available in plastic. There was an old Renwal (later bought and reissued by Revell) 5-ton Wrecker kit in 1/32. It has long been out of production and is sought by collectors. It regularly goes for $50-$100 on Ebay.

There is a M936A2 5 ton wrecker conversion designed to be used with the Italeri M923 or M925 kits. It goes for about $100+ and is by a company called Real Models. It could also be used, in conjunction with a converted/combined AFV Club M35 and Italeri M925 to get either an M543 or M818 5 ton wrecker as used in the 60's and 70's.

M818 wrecker:

I have converted a couple and they are not too difficult.

Good luck and happy modeling.
