This is a 1:35 Ford M151A2 Light Utility Truck Plastic Model Kit
from Academy Hobby Model Kits.
Suitable for ages 10 and up.
In 1951, a contract was granted to Ford Motor Co. to develop a Military
Utility Tactical Truck. The vehicles were issued to the military with the
designation of M151. Due to the swing-axle type suspension and lack of body
tilt on cornering, the M151 had a tendency to oversteer and roll when cornered
too aggressively. Despite a reputation of being unsafe, the M151 established a
record of reliability and proven performance over a wide range of operational
areas, suited for multiple roles and applications.

Parts are molded in olive green and attached to sprue trees.
