Having just brought one of each of these trucks, for a future project, can any one help me with any photos or links to web site for these vechicles in Israeli use, as i have a idea for a diorama possibly with both on it.

Hi there

Just do a Google: HEMTT IDF
You''ll find some interesting site with pictures !!

Thanks for the info, will now do some reseach.

Martin, a question for you: does the HEMMTT kit (either one) include much chassis detail? I'm thinking engine/trans/ driveshafts/ etc? Can't seem to find kit reviews that tell me about that.
Greg

that is one area they lack...... like alot of the Italeri kits..........

where di you get them from? I have been looking everywhere?

Hi guys,

I was learned that Real Models ( Miloslav Hraban ) was working on an engine and transmission for the HEMTT-series.
But uptill now nothing has been delivered !!

Purchased them both at the IPMS Scale Model World 2007 just gone. The fuel tanker is quite readly available still but the cargo version is i belive not available, i was luck to get one having searched the show on both days, it was on a trade stand right next to our club stand.

Hi Greg, regards detail on either the kits there is a a fare amount of chassie detail from looking at the instruction sheets, very little engine detail. PRO- ART Models have sets of exterior updates for either hemtt, including one for the rear of the fuel tanker and one to up date the crane. the one thing that does need replacing are the wheels they are very poor in the kit, tank works shop do a set either michelin or good year and also do Pro art.
