Discover the exceptional plastic assembly model Tamiya 35336 Ford GPA Amphibian 1/4ton 4x4 Truck in 1:35 scale, faithfully replicating one of the most innovative American vehicles of World War II. The Ford GPA, also known as the "Seep," is an amphibious light off-road truck created on the basis of the Willys MB/GPW Jeep specifically for the United States Army. Produced by Ford from 1942 to 1943, it was employed in many operations, including the African campaign (Operation Torch) and during the memorable Normandy invasion (D-Day) in June 1944.

The Tamiya 35336 model was released in 2014 and consists of highly precise plastic elements, with a finished model length of 135 mm and width of 50 mm. The manufacturer ensured a realistic reproduction of the monocoque body, characteristic air intakes, and a detailed GPW engine that can be admired thanks to the opening hood once the model is assembled. Additionally, the set includes photo-etched parts allowing you to replicate such details as the engine fan or hatch hinges—an ideal solution for modelers who value authenticity in every replica.
