Thank you Keith,

Great photo!!

But what is the contraption they put up in the back of the chevy?
It looks to me like it's something of a workshop-conversion of some kind.
Or some sort of a generator??

Thanks for pointing out this detail, Cletrac.
And what are the sizes of the tires on these trucks?
(And if anybody knows who produces these tires, or has a model that includes these tires in 1/35 scale, please feel free.... )

Looks like some sort of makeshift workshop conversion.

Tyres would be 10.50-20.

There's a photo of a captured 13 cab on eBay.de at the moment.

Thank you, that makes a nice example of where the markings should be placed.
