Vietnam Gun Trucks

Dear Friends:
I have developed a fetish about the Gun Trucks of Vietnam and later wars as a out take of the WW1 armored cars. I did a quick Google about them and found no paper models. Does anyone know of any paper models?
I append a shot of one truck that was brought back and is in a museum now.
Thanks,
Miles

I served on a Guntruck in Vietnam. I asked the same question. Here is a link to that thread. Viet Nam Guntrucks
You might take a look at this on the Guntrucks. https://www.sho.com/pr/smithsonian/s...p0xjpIPey9jYHM

I think the Minimodels.cz guys had around 3 different ones announced on their forum about the same time as the Ontos, but the download link's expired now. Would you like me to search my files if I have them?

I would be interested in those models if you could find them.
