About product

Studebaker US6 Cargo Truck 1:72 — a PST kit

An injection-molded plastic kit of the American Studebaker US6 truck in the cargo version, in 1:72 scale from PST. The model captures the most common form of the vehicle, that is the bed for carrying freight and troops. In 1:72 scale it suits figures and vehicles of the same size and belongs among the basic building blocks of supply scenes.

The real subject

The Studebaker US6 was an American medium-heavy truck which made its name in the Second World War above all through deliveries to the Soviet Union. The vehicles were built in enormous numbers and in the Red Army they were used to carry freight, to tow artillery and as a chassis for special bodies. The best known of these was the BM-13N rocket launcher carrier. For Soviet units the US6 meant a step change in the mobility of supply, and it was liked so much that a colloquial name taken from the maker came into use.

Building and painting tips

Dry-fit the frame and the axles; with trucks in 1:72 the whole stance of the model depends on it. Paint the cargo bed and the cab separately before you join them. Use a filler primer under the olive shade, then lift the edges with a lighter tone. Wooden elements of the bed, if the package contains them, are built up in thin layers of brown tones over a light base. Build the dust on the fenders and the wheels with pigment from the bottom upward and do not overdo it, so that the engraved detail stays visible.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of Allied and Soviet trucks in 1:72
  • Builders of supply and movement dioramas
  • Modelers who want a basis for special bodies
  • Moderately advanced builders, because of the small chassis parts

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

FAQ

The cargo version, that is the bed for freight and troops. Other bodies on the same chassis were released by the manufacturer as separate kits.

The US6 chassis is the same, but the rocket launcher body is not part of this package — that is a separate model.

It is more a model for a moderately advanced modeler. The chassis and wheel parts are small in 1:72 and call for a sharp scalpel and patience.

It is not stated by the manufacturer. Check the extent of the decals on the box.
