Driver For Trumpeter 1/35 Zil-157

Hi All,

I'm looking for a driver for my Trumpeter 1/35 Zil-157 in the driving position as opposed to standing outside the vehicle. So far the nearest I have seen is the driver from the Mini-Art Soviet Jeep set but he is of WWII vintage so the question is how much of the uniform details would I need to change to portray an early 1960's uniform? Alternatively if there is another suitable figure availible I'd be interested to hear about it.

I've crossposted this to the "Modern" group too

TIA
Andy

I used a Tamiya GAZ jeep driver in the Trumpeter SAM guided missile truck... there is a decent one in the Zvezda ZIS truck as well. While World War II its not hard to spruce them up a bit. You can't see that much anyway.

Do a google image search for: prague invasion.

You'll get loads of images of the uniforms from 1968.

About ten years later, but seems close to WWII.

best regards,
