Greetings,
I need a little help locating source material for ground vehicles that were used at aerodromes and behind the front lines.
British, French and German cars, trucks, tractors...
Thanks,
RichMC1

Check out the railway modellers scene for period bits and pieces.A few of us had a discussion on this in the Models thread-and if you can tell the difference between 1/76 and1/72.....well then you`re a better man than i[gunga din?].Also it strikes me that a lot of the Russian stuff[vehicles etc]is a copy of Western gear;maybe a little light modification may be in order??

Thank you Andy and Ross for the info on the kits. What I am really looking for however are reference books that would have photos and specifications of the various cars and trucks of the period. I'll post on the model section as to what I am working on.
Thanks,
