Searching for a truck

Good luck in your search. I do not have any informatioin for you. I know there some fellow modelers in this forum that build military trucks and might be able to help you out.

This truck kit is in 1/32 scale, close enough to 1/35. It is a standard stepside 1956 Ford pickup truck. Its capacity is probably ¾ to 1 ton though but since it is a slightly larger scale, you could fudge it and pretend it is a 1¼ ton truck. It is an old reissue kit. You could probably make a flat bed or stake truck out of it with a little styrene and balsa wood.

Rob,

Thanks for the input it might work. I'll check it out. Do you know of a military duce and a half from that same era (early 50's) and tha same scale?
