The GMC CCKW, a 2-and-a-half-ton 6×6 Cargo truck, formed the backbone of the famed Red Ball Express that kept Allied forces pushing after the Normandy Landings. The kit is a pretty straight-forward layout. Single-piece chassis/frame, rudimentary engine, the cab is made up from a roof hood, sides, back, and interior tub, all of which sit on a frame that includes the front fenders. Wheels/tires are single-piece moldings, in plastic (no vinyl). A clear sprue with the windows. The choices you do get are whether to put the bench seats in the upright or folded position, whether to put the bunched-up canvas cover at the front of the bed or use instead bracing for a ring-mounted .50cal, and whether or not to install the ring mount in the cab roof (the roof has the circle etched-in on the underside). The accessory sprue provides a number of nice little details for this kit: two M1919A4 machine guns, one open and one closed tripod for them, two M2HB machine guns, also with one open and one closed tripod; six small and six large crates; three 55-gallon drums with horizontal ground mounts for them; and three US and three German jerry cans. Overall, this is a nice kit and will set off either US armored vehicles or aircraft in any WWII or Korean war setting, and even as a stand-alone kit. Hats off to Academy!
