I picked up an old Italeri kit no. 271 U.S. 2 1/2 ton truck without instructions. Ive searched the internet and could not locate any instructions. Does anyone have a set in pdf format that could be emailed out?

Is this the hard cab version? I have an old Peerless Max kit buried in the stash someplace, and I think they are the same kit if I’m not mistaken. If someone else doesn’t come up with Italeri instructions, I’ll take a look inside the box and see if I can’t upload them, if it’s the same kit. Worst case, I can copy and mail them to you if I can’t scan them.

Bob, I scrounged around on Scalemates. Misread the family tree and guessed that the Italeri kit descended form an earlier Heller offering. not exactly right. But I did down load the Heller instructions, I'll try to PM them to you.

FWIW, there were folks on Scalemates that had recently finished the kit. It might be possible to ping them and find a copy.

I have the kit, multiples actually, and can scan and e-mail during the week if needed. PM me if you still need help.
I'll be offline until Sunday evening.
