ATTENTION: This BKM Vault Charity Build is a one-of-a-kind model and does not come with instructions. We will wrap the model as best as we can for shipping, but you will most likely need to use the provided pictures and your building skills to re-assemble the finished model. All proceeds from this sale will benefit the Mission Project, a registered 503(c) charity helping Veterans and Veteran families.
About this model:
While everyone focuses on the 353 LWB (Long Wheel Bed) version of the CCKW, people tend to forget about the 352 SWB (Short Wheel Bed). Though, it shouldn’t be that surprising. They only made about 44,000 352 CCKWs compared to the mind boggling amount of 540,000 353 CCKWs that were made. That did not stop the 352 from being a powerful workhorse in its own right, however. Both the 352 and 353 found their way to every main theater of the war, from the steppes of Eastern Front to the beaches of Peleliu. This model of the 352 is based on how the Navy painted them in the same gray as their ships. This particular model also has both canvas for the cab and truckbed, but also 3D printed wheels as well. In fact, they are the original prototypes of the 3D printed wheels that Brickmania was experimenting with in 2022 for the Red Ball Express kit.
