Hey all, I think this is my first post after lurking here for a while.

I'm building a personalized Tamiya M1025 Humvee and want to put some groceries in the rear hatch. I don't want to put MRE (I got some of those from a Tamiya equipment set) but instead cases of beer, cereal, even canned goods.

is there anywhere on this site or the web someone has something like this to download and print to cut and fold?

thanks!
Marty

If you are looking for a vehiclke based on reality, a couple of the AA snacks, possibly a case of soda, MREs, and some water bottles are about all you will see in a HMMWV. Alcohol is not allowed on deployments and you just don't carry a bunch of food around with you, especially canned goods.

Thanks, but I'm not doing a Humvee in military service ( I have done one of those previously btw). I'm actually doing sort of a "what if" customized Humvee as a personal hunting or bug-out and recreational vehicle for fun. Here's a sample of work in progress:

Yes, at least two sources I know of (both make paper foldable cigarette packs and cartons): DioArt and Black Bart Models. I've had the easiest time finding them on Ebay, just search "1/35 cigarette" (Black Bart sells under the name the_continental_op) on Ebay.

Hope that helps,
Chris
