I'm looking for a base model to make a 666 truck. Is there anything available on the market? Searching I found an old roco model, no more available. Anything else? Thanks

Dear Barnaba:
There are not many miniatures of Brockway trucks.The Roco version is the only one which is from the 1940's era;ERTL made modern Brockways (not in 1/87 scale) but even these are hard to find.
I got the Roco version a while ago because I knew that was one of the very few Brockway Miniatures avaliable.I would check however the Forces of Valor collection (military miniatures) - perhaps they made this vehicle;not quite sure tough.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll look for the Roco at ebay.

Barnaba, look on facebook for William Ratcliffe. He has some Brochway models.
Wow such an old model. Maybe Espewe?

For me a Corbitt or Brockway is the same. I would just like to keep the cab and maybe the wheels if acceptable. I'm going to make a truck used in Italy after the war. Anyway, if I consider that the Roco are quite old models, maybe the easiest way is that I scratch it from zero. I have a 1/35 Corbitt that could be a perfect reference.
