Anything in particular? Nationality, era, etc. The reason I ask is that I just read the Somalia post before this and so when I saw “gun truck” I was thinking about those pickup trucks the Somalis used. See how confused I am now. [;)]

Have you seen AFV’s 1:35 U.S. M35 A1 Gun Truck Vietnam?. I have one on show
at http://www.falconbbs.com/model14a.htm
It’s probably one of the most beautiful gun trucks available anywhere on the Web.

Hoo-boy! Andy, have I got the article for you! Try p. 40 of the current (April) FSM–the Vietnam War special issue. The author, James Lyles, served on gun trucks in Vietnam, and he’ll show you how to build “Eve of Destruction.” He’s also written a book about gun trucks, The Hard Ride, that’s supposed to publish later this year. Have fun!
