Despite the fact that it is 1:35 scale and military car, I post this. Last in the text below from the manufacturer says something that stands out, ”As a bonus, this model kit also includes 4 off-road wheels for those who want to build a more modern civilian vehicle”.
Almost 40 years ago, my childhood friend and I bought one from the defense sale, had fun, drove in the woods and learned a lot before motorcycles and life took over. 
The off-road capabilities and durability were impressive, the differentials could be locked with a knob on the dashboard (vacuum). We fantasized about V8, 44 inch wheels and winch but for my part it newer happend.
I have looked over the shoulder in on a kit in the hobby shop and what I saw looked good.

The kit is 3D designed.

Volvo TP21, also known as the "Volvo Sugga" or "Raptgb 915," is a military vehicle produced by Volvo between 1953 and 1958. The TP21 was known for its robust design and off‑road capabilities, making it suitable for various military applications.The vehicle was equipped with a 3.67‑liter inline‑six side‑valve engine, which contributed to its reliability and performance in challenging terrains. The engine, featuring a side‑valve configuration, was known for its simplicity and durability, making it wellsuited for military use. The TP21 also featured a four‑wheel‑drive system, enhancing its off‑road capabilities. The nickname "Sugga," meaning "sow" in Swedish, reflects its sturdy and somewhat bulky appearance. Over the production period, approximately 720 units of the Volvo TP21 were manufactured.The TP21 was utilized by different branches of the Swedish military, including the Army, the Air Force, and the Coastal Artillery. Its primary role was in the signal corps, where it functioned as a mobile radio command post, facilitating communications in various military operations.Over the years, the Volvo TP21 has gained a reputation among military vehicle enthusiasts and collectors for its unique design and historical significance. As a bonus, this model kit also includes 4 off‑road wheels for those who want to build a more modern civilian vehicle.

My problem is I invariably see vehicles that aren't there.

35th scale? Makes me wonder if this idea I've had for these Volvos rattling around in my brain is one increment more doable ... or if the 32nd scale Monogram (now re-released as a Revell) Mack truck hood/fenders would be too oversized to work on this car.

Spontaneously I think the Volvo is too narrow, a cab from an Opel Blitz Tamiya or Italeri might fit, torpedo and windshield have some similarities.
