Hobby Boss 1/35 US GMC CCKW-352 Wood Cargo Truck Model Kit

The GMC CCKW, affectionately known as the "Deuce and a Half," played a crucial role in World War II and the Korean War. This 2.5-ton 6X6 cargo truck was indispensable for transporting troops and supplies across challenging terrains. The CCKW came in various versions, including open and closed cabs, as well as long and short wheelbases. As the conflict evolved, the design was adapted to include a composite bed made of steel and wood, addressing the material shortages of the era.
