I am still trying to learn all of the different CMP patterns which can be a daunting task like learning the various M4 Sherman’s or T-34 production plant versions!
Thank you again.

The Italeri/Peerless gun tractor and 15cwt CMP kits are Chevrolet but of the later type which is known as the #13 cab style. The Tamiya Quad kit is a Ford CMP of the #12 cab style which is the middle type of the 3 CMP truck types. The earliest is the #11 cab type which looks similar to the cab 12 type. No scale model kits of the 11 Cab trucks or Chevrolet versions of the 12 cab type are made in 1/35 scale although there may be some 1/72, 1/76 scale one's in resin but as this is not a scale I keep up with I am probably wrong.
