1/35 U.S. 2 1/2-TON 6x6 CARGO TRUCK

Length: 198.5 mm. Image shows painted and assembled kit.

During WWII, over 800,000 2 1/2-ton 6x6 cargo trucks were produced and became a symbol of the American victory along with the Sherman tank and the Jeep. Among them was a troop carrier of which approximately 57,000 units were made. This is a plastic assembly model kit of one such truck. The highly durable and tough form has been precisely reproduced. Features such as the robust suspension and the split type differential have a rich detailed finish. The model depicts the doors which had canvas parts and its cargo area with the covers removed to allow you to recreate a commonly seen scene of WWII. Five kinds of markings and a seated driver figure are included.

The cargo truck version was the most prolifically produced variant of this vehicle, and it saw action transporting personnel, ammunition, rations and much more.
A driver figure and multiple accessories are included in the kit. The engine also uses separately molded parts.
Five marking options are included in the box. Choose whether to assemble with or without engine side covers.
The rear gate is a moving piece.
