Thanks Marty.
It loosk to be square, is it and how long are each of the walls, and how tall from the ground level to the bottom of the roof? also how far off the ground level is the window to shoot out of? If you could answer those questions it would be great.

2. Size is 3 by 3 and 1/2 inch with front and back walls being 3 and 1/2 in length.
3. Roof is about 1 and 1/2 inch from the ground
4. Bottom of the window is about 1 and 1/4 inch from the ground.

It is 1:35 scale. I am pretty sure this is an old Verlinden kit. I go mine a long, long time ago and made a latex mold to easy reproduction.
