Manufacturer description

The fourth release on this WWII utility vehicle, nicknamed the Austin 'Tilly' as a result, is decorated in an unusual desert style camouflage colour scheme, with the beige being repeated in the wheel hubs. The slightly lighter sand coloured 'canvas' back incorporates the interesting detail of double rolled down canvas flaps on the sides, as well as a rolled up rear canvas back. The Maltese Cross is emblazoned proudly on the front wing in blue and yellow with the other authentic military markings on the front, sides and rear of the truck.
