CCKW 353 is complete

[Chariots of Fire]

This project can now take its place on the shelf.  Work is completed with the final details on the tailboard and tarp.  The M1  next to the MP is in its scabbard.  The load for the back will be a separate project by itself.

Willard battery next to the gas tank.  Engine is complete and wired.

The barrel in the back is a piece of 1" PVC pipe with 0.060 half round for the ribs.

The truck is assigned to the Red Ball Express for hauling supplies to Patton's front lines.

Very nice details, subtle dry brushing adds to realism. I wish they would offer figurines in 1/24 25 scale as detailed as their 1/35 counterpart.

I know what you mean.  I've slept in command tents, 16x16 wall tents and a small 4x6 canvas tent.  They all smell the same!!

Superior craftsmanship, as expected. You do fine work.

Now it is done for sure.  Palette full of K rations in the front behind the gas for Patton's tanks.
