Tamiya 37014 - 1/35 508CM Coloniale Italian/German Military Staff Car Kit  [37014]

Tamiya 1/35 Italian / German 508CM Coloniale Staff Car Model Kit

This Tamiya 1/35 Italian / German 508CM Coloniale Staff Car kit recreates a notable WWII light vehicle. Built originally by Fiat in 1937, the 508CM Coloniale was used across North Africa for transport and reconnaissance duties. After Italy surrendered in 1943, German units also pressed the type into service, reflecting its practical design and wartime utility.

Kit construction and period background

The kit is produced in collaboration between Tamiya and Italeri, delivering detailed parts and fit. You can build the car with either an open or a closed convertible roof, and the parts set includes headlight components modelled to German wartime specification for accurate appearance.

Assembly tips and display potential

The kit includes newly added parts to form a closed convertible roof, giving you display flexibility. With decals for both Italian and German markings, you can represent either service. The included figures help stage a small diorama or convoy vignette to enhance your display.
