Hi Bob:
Just in case you need to scratch build one. They have a few in "The American Military Museum" in El Monte, California. 5 bucks the entrance, so bring your camera and a measuring tape.

Don't know if they have more, but here's a few photos of the 36 foot one from the American Military I shot several years ago. Hope they help.

Nice work. Is it Cliff's PTA model?

Looks good. Did you build it straight? Re-size or make additions?

Excellent build Bob, but your mate building the plastic one might point out that yours is an LCM, not an LCVP (Higgins).

Lcm

Howdy Don,

Yes, it is from Cliff's papertigerarmaments.com.

JohnM,
This was as close to a Higgins as I could find.
I know very little about boats but am learning
thanks to the Ship Modelers Association (SMA) meetings.

Vermin King
I built it straight even though it may not be...
