Can anybody identify the truck that this Bofors is mounted on? It would appear to be late war, as I think it has the 'stiffkey' site mounted. Not a GMC or the 'official' Morris C9 mount or an F60L. Could it be a Bedford QL?

OK, question answered in a thread from 2007 where Frenchy ID'd this as a C9. I have this urge to stick a bofors on a truck, and there's no Morris available except Azimut's resin version. The GMC was only used by the French and no F60 for the other version unless I crosskit Tamiya's quad with an Italeri C15 and extend the chassis.

Or I do a what-if.............mmmmmmmmmm

Strange that the GMC SP version was done before a C9 or F60L though. Hoping that the maker of 72nd CMP trucks does one in 35th (forget the name ... IBG or something?)

There's a 1/35 GMC version by HobbyBoss that I found on Ebay, hadn't seen any news of it. It was only used by the French in Europe and then Indo--China so far as I can find out. I wanted a Brit truck though.
