Derek Southerland's WWII 2½-Ton 6×6 Truck
Here is Tamiya's 1/35 scale deuce and a half in a motor pool, "Baileys Babies" 10th Armored, 55th Engineers. I added Eduard photo-etch metal and Value Gear resin parts. The load includes pieces from Tamiya, Italeri, and scratchbuilt accessories. Upholstery thread was used for the tie down ropes. I added Verlinden resin firewall and engine accessories, an Eduard photo-etch metal vent, windshield tracks, and door hold downs, and plumbed fuel system and wired distributor, coil, and starter with thin gauge wire. The twisted winch cable is scratchbuilt from speaker wire and chain from the craft aisle. I weathered with Vallejo pigments, Tamiya paint, and Winsor & Newton oils.
