A
Monogram (originally from the Mork and Mindy TV Series)
CJ Series Jeep kit. I made this civilian kit into a military
version. The stuff in the rear was pretty much scratch built,
including the radio and foot locker box. I used small tow
cables on the front bumper.
The
bed roll is gauze, coverd and made with white glue (diluted)
and tied. I am not sure where I got the decals. I used chalks
to weather the model.
Hummer:
The Next Generation - This is by far the best book on
the subject regarding both the military and civilian version
of AM General's ultimate four-wheel-drive vehicle. It contains
the historical development of the Hum-vee from the prototype
via Heavy Hummer Variant, A1up to the A2 model and covers
most types and applications.The civilian spin-off vehicle
is treated in a similarly comprehensive fashion. The photos
are good, plentiful and representative. It is my bible
on the subject yet it is not a tome but concise and informative!
Jeep:
Willys, Ford & Bantam Models, 1941-1945 - This book
has over 130 photographs with 50 in full color ! It
contains all the essential facts about war-time Willys, Ford
and Bantam Jeeps. A history, description and analysis of all
models and variants. Including specifications and production
figures
Jeep
Military Portfolio 1941-1945 - This book traces the evolution
of the WW2 Willys MB & Ford GPW jeeps. It includes driving
impressions, service data, history and a report of the "Seep"
amphibian. Filled with black & white photos and illustrations.
A very interesting book that all Jeep lovers must have!
