Model Forum / General / Models / March 2006

    I'd say this request is pretty 'iffy', but what the heck, with a little
luck?  In an older issue of Airfix Magazine [April 1979] I saw a small
model photo of a German Half-Track [SdKfz 7?]fitted out as an
experimental RAF crash tender in 1945.  Now that's kind of neat, I
thought, and as I have an old Bandai kit gathering dust somewhere in the
styrene cave I figured it would make a good part time project.

    The model in the photo was fitted out with parts from the Airfix RAF
Emergency set [probably 1/72nd and long out of production now?].  If I
could locate some photos or information on the Half-track and the
equipment, maybe just maybe the fire fighting equipment could be
scratched for use with the Half-Track in 1/48th scale.

    Would anyone have any idea where I could look for such information?

    Thanks all.  cheers -  Jim.
