Hi all! (esp. Finnish ppl! :-))

Do any of you guys know where I could get a kits of Russian ZIL 131 truck and UAZ 496 B? I drove these during my military service and I would love to do a small diorama with them in Finnish colors. Here's few images of what I'm talking about...




Thanks for your help!

UAZ 469 is available through Military Wheels from Russia. Here is one on Ebay:

I have this kit, it is crude, but looks as though it will build nicely. It is very detailed to include a full engine and chasis details. Detail is soft with lots of flash.
The only ZIL 131 I can find is a 1/72 fuel truck by Omega models.
