83830 1/35 CCKW 750 gallon Tanker Version
The CCKW is a 2.5-ton 6X6 U.S. Army cargo truck that saw service in World War II and the Korean War, often referred to as a "Deuce and a Half" or "Jimmy". The CCKW came in many variants, based on the open or closed cab, and Long Wheelbase (LWB 353) or Short Wheelbase (SWB 352). Initially all versions had a closed cab design (having a metal roof and doors) with all steel cargo beds. But as the war progressed an open cab version was designed that had fixed 'half doors' and a canvas top/sides and the steel bed was replaced by a wooden one to conserve steel. The wood bed proved unsatisfactory and a 'composite' bed with steel sides and framing, but with wooden slats for the bed, was developed. Later, the 'wood/steel' composite bed was replaced by an all-steel composite bed.
