I second the motion. These are classic Brit vehicles in WWII. They woulod look great in either Normandy and EA colors. AEC Matador will be agood addition to your list.

Hi Guys,

As a gesture to reinforce Mr. Gambale's excellent suggestion, I thought it might be good idea to attach a some of photos of some of the CMP 15-cwt models in my collection.

One is of a "D-Day version" used by the Canadian Army and the other a "North Africa version" in use by the Austrailian Army.
Both are built from the recently re-released Italeri kit in 1/35 scale.

This quintessential Canadian vehicle was quite common in most WWII theatres of operation and used by all Commowealth arms of service in many different roles. Over 69,000 were produced and many examples still survive today.

I also feel these trucks would be a great addition to the K&C line of excellent products. Hopefully we can spark someinterest in these little trucks and inspire Andy to include it on "THE LIST" for release someday.......

Regards

Wayne

PS- I also agree with the QLD and Matador suggestions. We can always use more trucks.................

Wayne,

Those are really sharp looking vehicles. If K&C made them, I would definitely buy one of each! Your skills as a modeler are quite exceptional. I am soon going to have to develop my own modeling skills, as my 3 an 1/2 year old son is already pressing me to build the Bandai 1:48 scale models I have been collecting for him since he was born. I am going to hold out until he is 5, and then we will start building the exact same models I built as a kid together.

Yeah, the 15 CWT is a must have classic, I would also like to see a new Quad truck, Limber and 25 pounder, but I think I may have already mentioned that

Fusilier made these. Every once in a very blue moon, you'll find on ebay at a good price.

I yhink Chuck H got a hold of one a whie back.

Not as detailed but the resale value isn't what K&C is. Scale is also 1:32. So you could possible do a guilt free conversion.
