Trailer DD162 Attached to Market Garden Vehicles. (1 Viewer)

[Desertkiwi]

Not sure if other collectors of the MG range have thought of trying this, but I recently purchased K&C's US trailer set DD162 to see how they worked being attached to either the new MG Jeep or recent Bren Carrier.

I realize this particular trailer was never meant for this purpose, but I think it goes well with either, especially if you never managed to pick up K&C's original jeep and trailer set.

Here's some snaps to demonstrate how they look........what do ya think?

Bit more info on the US group during Arnhem:

They were with Urquhart and had their own jeeps with british drivers.

They also wore their American uniforms with all patches removed!

Cheers Scott for posting that mate! The one thing you can say about this hobby, is that it's never dull and full of surprises.{sm4}
