Tank Transporter Information wanted

1 Attachment(s)

I found this photo in the AWM photo files some time ago and while it is wrongly captioned as PUCKAPUNYAL, AUSTRALIA. 1942. DIAMOND T M20 & M9 TRAILER it is in fact a Ford MH 6X6 being used in a semi trailer mode and in this case is loading a Stuart M3A1 tank.

I am wanting to model this setup but need more information on the semi-trailer
as the photo is to low res to enlarge too much. Can anyone help with any details of this rig? :)

I have built the MH truck in 1/48 scale using Tamiya GMC chassis with revised WB and single wheels only

The mudguards are from a Hasegawa Isuzu Fuel Truck matched to a GMC cab.

G'day Cliff,

Have you seen the AWM film F07028? it has a fair bit of those trucks in it. Not terribly clear of course, but better than nothing!

Cheers mate,

Allan
