Does anyone make the dodge WC half ton? i can find the 3/4 ton different places, including the command car which is cool. Would love to find a 1/2 ton command car
thanks for any links or info you might have

These are the only ones that I have seen.
I have no experience with this company.
They only look to offer Commonwealth style trucks, and are probably resin kits.

I was looking for anything 1/2 ton in 1/43 scale for my model railroad, but found almost nobody was making that in scale I could find.
I guess it has to do with most people wanting to model around D-Day and later?

gents, thanks for the replies. The scale of super tiny isn't too appealing but i haven't seen anything else anywhere. I even talked to a fellow who custom makes models but he looked for one online and couldn't find it so he won't make it lol. Maybe there isn't enough of a market for it.

that's cool but in the small (on my puter anyway) photo it looks like a 50s nose?

I'm really not sure I'm not too familiar with them. Here is a closer shot.
