Why your passion for CMP's?

Hi Carmen,

As a modeller I think it's that there are few types of truck that had so many different body patterns, and were used by almost (maybe every) Allied nation during WW2. This means that I have almost endless scope for making a lot of the parts, loads of research etc. to do; so my hobby for the last 40years keeps going and I certainly won't run short of subjects.
And, as Chrissie says, they have such a pug-ugly face, kinda cute for a truck!

Thanks a lot Dave 40 years means its more than a Hobby ...its definately a passion huh? Interesting stuff. This thread will help me understand all you guy's-es obsessions with these metal creatures and all their parts. They do sort of grow on you

I love Chrissy's comments Pug-Ugly ...

BTW ... last year in Nelson I started seeing TWO brand new "trucks" around town that were made to look like old army vehicles/trucks. They were huge and Pug-Ugly. I thought the Army had come to town!
