I'd like to find some alternative decal sets for the AFV Club M35 two and a half ton truck. Specifically I'd like to find some that included unit markings and vehicle numbers in white. Any of y'all have any ideas?
Thanks

Off the top of my head I don't know of any as just the truck.Wolfpak Decals has some for a guntruck version.Also check out Mec Models,they might have decals for a guntruck also.

As Jason says, I haven't seen any Vietnam-specific M35 decals either. The guntruck decals are the best way to get what you want.
On the truck, most M35s in Vietnam were M35A1s (different front marker and tail lights, exhaust routed along frame and exits between right rear wheels), not A2s as in the AFV Club kit. A better option may be to get the AFV Club M35A1 Nancy Guntruck. It has the parts to build an M35A1 and also has all the Vietnam-era white markings.
