Italeri 1/35 Chevrolet 15 CWT D-Day Eighty Years (233)

Explore the vehicles that kept Allied armies moving with the Italeri 1/35 Chevrolet 15 CWT, presented in the D-Day Eighty Years edition. Part of the Canadian Military Pattern truck family, the Chevrolet served the transport needs of British and Commonwealth forces. CMP trucks supported operations from North Africa and Sicily to the Normandy campaign, carrying the supplies essential to a mobile army.

The Chevrolet 15 CWT combined a compact military truck layout with four-wheel drive, making it a useful subject for a collection focused on wartime logistics rather than frontline armour alone. Its distinctive cab and cargo body provide opportunities to contrast painted metal, glazing and the weathered surfaces of a working transport vehicle.

Italeri kit 233 recreates the truck in 1/35 scale, with a finished model length of approximately 17.1 cm. This edition includes new decals for three versions and a colour instruction sheet. Build it as a standalone vehicle or use it as the starting point for a convoy, supply depot or Normandy-themed diorama with separately supplied figures and accessories.

Supplied as an unassembled plastic static model kit requiring assembly and painting. Careful washes, dust effects and restrained wear can help bring its wartime transport role to life.
