Tamiya 32585 - 1/48 Scale German 3-Ton Truck Kit, Classic WWII Subject  [32585]

Overview of the Tamiya 32585 1/48 German 3-Ton Truck

The Tamiya 1/48 German 3-ton truck kit captures a workhorse of WWII supply lines. The real vehicle carried crews, fuel and ammunition, powered by a rear-mounted 6-cylinder petrol engine capable of about 85 km/h on road and 35 km/h off-road. Production numbers reached roughly 78,000 by July 1944, making it a common sight in many theatres.

Why this kit appeals to scale modellers

This model is suited for builders who enjoy neat, small-scale detailing. It features a ladder frame chassis and an accurately modelled cabin interior. Builders can choose between open or covered headlight setups, and the set includes barrels and jerry cans to add authentic cargo to your scene.

Collecting and diorama use

With two decal schemes available, the kit lets you portray different units and campaigns. The included driver figure helps bring scenes to life, and the compact footprint makes it an easy fit for shelf displays or tight dioramas.
