Is there a company that makes these? I think they would look great in a diorama. Most of em seem to be in the larger scales. 1/48, 35, 24. Or in the HO scale wich are too small.

Not much out there in 72nd. Besides the stuff listed on the site above I know that Matador Models has started a series called Civvy Street. These look to be 1/76 and are mainly Lorries, etc but should work in 72nd scale.
Thanks Phil. I am kinda looking for pick up trucks or cars. I’m gonna trash em too. Make em look all blown up. So quality isn’t an issue. Just age accuracy. Anyone else got some ideas?
Attack Hobby makes a couple of Tatra Czech(?) civilian “people’s car”. Sort of a VW looking thing that is more stretched out. These are from WW2. Here are some links to staff car/sedan kits by Attack Hobby.

MAC Distribution also does some 1/72 scale vehicles that may work well. I know they do some VW bus vehicles in 1/87.
Thanks rob I never thought about looking under staff cars. What an awesome idea. I’ve seen a couple of 1/87 vehichles out there and if I mess em up enough, I wonder if that’ll do or if people will notice. There’s a scene in Saving Private Ryan that has a blue car half burried and I think that if I bury the car it might look ok. Well, the kit costs 12 bucks so I’m still not sure. Well thanks again.
dont know if this helps but airfix do a german recon set , armour car plus staff car, and they do scammel trucks and stuff to.
