Australian 25 pdr Gun Tractor
Hi
This is a model making question. I want to build an australian 25pdr being pulled by a CMP. Is the Airfix/Italeri Chevrolet tractor appropriate or did the australians only use CMP Gun Tractors with home made bodies? Any pictures would be welcomed.

When he finally gets off the Southern Ocean, I know Keith Webb can answer you. In the meantime, Euan, can you pick up the slack? You or Mike Cecil...

To my knowledge we used the cab 12 body style (Tamiya Quad kit) and our local #8 & #9 bodied FAT's only and did not use the body style this Italeri kit depicts.

Another on the list is a #3 or #3A Ford Marmon/Herrington GT as used by Australian Forces. Cheers Cliff
