1:100 GAZ-69 Light Truck
$1.00
The GAZ-69 is a four-wheel drive off-road vehicle produced by GAZ (ГАЗ, or Gorkovsky Avtomobilnyi Zavod, Gorky Automobile Factory) between 1953 and 1956 and then by UAZ, in 1956–1972, though all of these light truck class vehicles were known as GAZ-69s. It was also produced in Romania until 1975
The GAZ-69 was created by the team of chief designer Grigoriy Vasserman as a replacement for the GAZ-67B that would have lower fuel consumption than its predecessor and use the same 55 hp (41 kW; 56 PS) 2.1 L (130 cu in) inline four and three-speed transmission as the GAZ-M20 Pobeda. The development process started in 1946 and the first prototypes known under the name “Truzhenik” (Toiler) were built in 1947. After extensive on-road testing, the new off-road vehicle went into production on August 25, 1953. Over 600,000 GAZ-69s had been built by the end of production in the USSR in 1972. a copy of the GAZ-69 with some modifications was produced by ARO in Romania until 1975, first as the IMS-57, its main difference was that it used the GAZ-A type I4 engine (obtained by importing old Soviet tooling, as the original GAZ-69 engine was seen as uneconomical), then heavily redisigned as the IMS M59, and later modernized as the ARO M461.GAZ-69s were standard military jeeps of the Eastern Bloc and client states, except Romania that used mainly the locally built ARO models.
The Idle Hands Workshop
I’m a grumpy old man that likes to make things. Army veteran with lots of varied interests as a result of living in numerous countries and exposed to many different cultures.
I presently play Team Yankee, Flames of War ( Middle and Late Americans and Soviets ), Fate of a Nation, and whatever else my friends seem to get me sucked into ( they’re such pushers and I’m a sucker for peer pressure ).
When available and posted I try to take pics of the printed models, for this I generally keep any failed prints for myself so you’re looking at pictures of failed prints that I paint up just for display purposes to give you an idea of what the “can” look like even if the print fails.

Shipping Policy
I'll avoid shipping if at all possible, it's just too hard for me to try and get stuff completed, then mailed out, and remember it all. Yeah, I'm that bad about it, I know it, so I avoid it like the plague ( too soon ??? )
