1/35 Chevrolet C60L Ambulance
IBG Models 35040 Chevrolet C60L Ambulance is a 1:35 scale plastic kit of a Canadian Military Pattern ambulance. Its distinctive box body and medical markings make it an appealing subject for a stand-alone model or a World War II diorama.
The Chevrolet C60L Ambulance belonged to the extensive Canadian Military Pattern (CMP) family produced during World War II for Commonwealth armed forces. Its ambulance body was used to transport casualties and its tall enclosed compartment clearly distinguishes it from general-service cargo versions.
The IBG Models 35040 kit reproduces the Chevrolet C60L Ambulance in 1:35 scale. The combination of the robust CMP chassis, angular cab and large medical body offers plenty of scope for panel shading, restrained service wear and realistic road dust around the chassis.

Building recommendations
- Test-fit the frame, cab and ambulance body before gluing; correct chassis alignment is essential on a wheeled vehicle.
- Paint the cab interior and areas of the body that will become difficult to reach before closing the main assemblies.
- Install glazing after the main painting stages and protect it from paint and varnish overspray.
- Keep weathering appropriate for a service vehicle: fine dust, road dirt and wear around access points will look more convincing than heavy chipping over every panel.
- The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted; modelling tools, paints and adhesive are required.
Choose suitable model paints and adhesives for plastic models for assembly and finishing.
