Help, Jerry cans needed
Posted by philp on Sunday, March 28, 2004 12:47 AM
All,
I am working on a 2 1/2 ton Jimmy of the Red Ball Express and I need a cargo for it.
I finally found what I am looking for., Yanks Miniatures #9728 cargo load #2. Problem is, the kit went out of production in 1999 when Yanks closed up. I really don't want to do a whole load of separate cans but want the jerry can load for the truck (possible dio).
Anyone out there have one that they want to get rid of or know someone/place that does? If so, contact me off site at ipmsslc@hotmail.com
Thanks in advance for any help.

If you have no luck finding this kit Phil, just remember that the only cans that you have to truly build are the ones on the top, the balance can be bulked together without much detail.
Happy Modelling and God Bless Robert

if you get the Allied Vehicles assessory set it makes 10 petrol gerry cans 10 water gerry cans and 6 barrels you might be able to put a spacer in the middle as Roberts pointed out

Thanks for the advice guys. I have a guy who thinks he can pick one up from a vendor this weekend. Otherwise, I probably will build the top row and fake the bottom. Just don't want to buy that many cans and build them (ok, I'm lazy Smile [:)] ).
