in-progress pics of the gun truck Red Baron. Ths truck was assigned to the 8th Group, 27th Tans Bn. 444th Trans Co. during the early 1970"s. This truck was originally the Saint. http://community.webshots.com/album/94084075iDguBJ

As always animal - good stuff in progress! You're making me want to stop and finish "Easy Rider" or begin "Snoopy II"...

I think we have enough gun truck model projects to create a Gun Truck Gallery...

Gunnie

I got a lot of photos of gun trucks to add if you want. I have a lot of actual photos of the trucks that the crewmembers hav sent me also.

Animal,

'kewl' shots so far. Hey is that resin (white stuff) or where is those parts from?

Dave

Dave they are homecast resin parts. They are made from a modified M-35 2 1/2 ton kit from AFV Club. The cab is stretched and widen and a mold is made of the converted parts. This particular resin cab was made from a friend in New York. He cast some of the best M-54 cabs that I have ever had the priveledge to use. He makes my castings look like junk. Everything in the light grey are resin castings and the gun box is plastic card stovk from Evergreen. The od green chassis is from the M-925 series five ton truck by Italeri. This is the second cab that I have used on a project. And if I am lucky enough to get some more of them I will certainly use them. He does not sell them very often. I was just lucky to get the ones that I have.
