I am building a DUKW for our daughter in Boston and I need 1/76 truck tires for the vehicle. Any kits out there with the tires I need to rob them from?

Jim,

You didn't make it clear what you mean by "street tires". Perhaps the largest variety of 1/76 trucks can be found in the Airfix kit range. Can we assume that you are building the Airfix DUKW? Airfix also bought out JB Models that are also 1/76 and has a number of truck kits. You can check out the link to Henk of Holland's Airfix page to have a look at what's available.

Cheers,
Jan

Friendship Models has a replacement set of white metal wheels for the Airfix DUKW:
