Australian Indian Pattern Ambulance numbers
I'm trying to build a model of the above ambulance from a photo & I am using an L.R.D.G. Chevrolet front end & chassis made by Tamiya. I know they were used in North Africa & wondered what WD no. would they have had. Can anybody help please? Please note the fuzzy finish on the body has been removed & redone with a better more canvas looking finish!

good to see my plans for this model have helped someone else do a good model. Sorry can't help with the ARN (WD) numbers for them but would be interested in them myself.

Sorry I didn't credit you with the plans Cliff, I have done on Missing Lynx. I will post another photo of the almost finished truck soon. Next one will be the Australian FAT No.3 Ford from the ICM kit.
All the best, Howard

can't find my original measurements so is it possible to have the body dimensions please from the door pillars back on the main cab and dimensions of the rear body. I believe these are the same '39-'41? ICM (Ukraine) put out a 1941 German Ford kit in 1/35 scale and also (now) a 1939 German Ford kit in the same scale that can be used as a base kit to make either or both (LOL!) I am presently converting one kit into an Australian 158in WB GS towing an 18lb gun and hope to also do the M/H #3a Gun Tractor soon as well with another of this kit. Any help welcomed

Hi Jack,
I'm also interested in the 3A tractor. It's the PTO/winch drive that is the biggest mystery to me. Were you ever able to get pictures of the winch on the tractor in the South Australian museum? Hope you can help! Cheers, Allan

Cliff, Allen,
I have th winch fitted to mine now. Just need to finish off some leather boots for the levers on the cab floor. I will get some photos after Corowa. I have a mate (Ronin Mawson) who may let me put the truck on his truck hoist and I will be able to get perfect photos of the underbody showing the layout of everything. I will put the photos on MLU for all you modellers. The rear body of the MH is unique to these trucks. You also need to take notice of the uniquely Aussie roadster style cabin. It is slightly longer than the standard Ford cab and is squared off instead of rounded on the rear corners. The extension is of timber frame and sheet metal. The seat is also non standard.
