About product

Early War Austin K2Y Heavy Ambulance 1:35 (Gecko Models)

This injection-molded plastic kit in 1:35 scale from Gecko Models captures the British Austin K2/Y heavy ambulance in its early war form. According to the manufacturer the package contains, besides the plastic parts, photo-etched parts, decals and a figure of the driver. The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted.

The real subject

The Austin K2/Y was a British 4x2 heavy ambulance of which more than thirteen thousand were built between 1939 and 1945. It was powered by a six-cylinder engine of around 60 horsepower and, weighing over three tons, the vehicle could reach a speed of about 80 km/h. It carried four stretchers, or a group of seated wounded. Its characteristic box body made it one of the best-known Allied ambulances of the war.

Building and painting tips

With an ambulance it pays to finish the interior of the body and the cab before closing the whole up. Glue the photo-etched parts with super glue and the plastic with thin cement for plastic. Treat the surface with a base color, spray the body with an airbrush and bring out the panels and rivets with a fine wash; paint the figure of the driver separately.

Who the model is for

  • for collectors of British and Allied wheeled vehicles of the Second World War
  • for modelers who like unusual rear-area and medical vehicles
  • for creators of dioramas on medical service and rear-area themes
  • for builders with experience of photo-etched parts

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
