Hi,

I will check SS Armor from Squadron-Signal for trucks of that unit in Normandy and I will post if I find anything.

Hola,
Dark Yellow with some motteling of green and or red brown would be most appropriate. Let us know how it builds up. Is it a nice kit?

Hi,

At SS Armor I haven't find any 12th SS truck but most of their vehicles in Normandy are painted as Anders said - dark yellow with green or red brown strips or both.
