WC63: Peerless/Airfix/Italeri/Testors and Skybow/AFV Club -- choose the latter

37mm M3A1 AT gun: Bronco http://www.perthmilitarymodelling.com/reviews/vehicles/bronco/cb35107_37.html

 

105mm howitzer: Italeri, DML and AFV Club. AFV is the most detailed

whos got them?..ive read them cover to cover as well as Mr Doyles boks on the CCKW's and DUKW's.LOTS and LOTS and even more photos that are fantastic diorama or..just models for the shelf,with alot of "odd ball" trucks,like WC51/52 shop trucks,the front 1/3rd or so of the weapons carrier bodys were semi-enclosed,or had very large boxes on top of the side boxes of the bed,with clamshell doors,the lower one creating and shelf,and the upper a shade of sorts,with tool boxes and drawers inside,one photo shows a "snapon" ( i had no idea they'd been around that long,you can read the name)tool chest.th back end still open for more larger tools or parts,and the two trucks were phtographed working on a "Baber Green" trencher.....who woulda known?...

 

that said..are there any M37 weapons carriers,WC54 ambulances or WC63 1 1/2T trucks?...im not finding any...and there used to be a WC 56/57 command truck by tamiya..cant seem to find one of those either.

how about towed 37mm antitank guns,105 howitzers?..155s?...8" howitzers?...

thanks Dave.
