Light tank/jeep/carrier
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, January 31, 2004 7:29 PM
I want to buy a model of something that has a MG or anti-tank gun or both. There is one particular one I am looking at. It's a Dodge 37mm anti-tank vehicle used in North Africa (1/35th scale). The only problem is that I can not find any site or store that sells it! Anyone know of a site that I could buy old models on? Any good 1/35th models from North Africa you all know of?

The kit you are looking for is an old Peerless Max / Italeri piece.

Internet Hobbies lists it but I'm unsure of availability.

The truck is buildable, but the gun is on the rough side. It will take some scratch work to bring it up to snuff.

Italeri sells a Demag with a Pak 40 mounted on it. I doubt it was used in Africa if that makes a difference. Tamiya makes a 251 halftrack with a 75mm howitzer.

Revell makes a British Bedford truck with a 6 pdr in the backused in North Africa, its a decent kit, i've seen the dodge kit around in an Italeri box in a hobby shop but i think its out of production but should be findable.
good luck
