GHQ Models Forums

In a recent ebay purchase, I happened across a model that I positively identified as an Alvis Stormer IFV (Based off of the CVR(T) chassis). I tried searching GHQ and CinC's catalog, but found no such model. The quality seems too high for it to be H&R or scotia and the hollow underside suggests GHQ. Could this be an out-of-print GHQ model? Or perhaps an ISM/croissant conversion of GHQ's Spartan APC?

Any collectors who can identify this item, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Any chance of posting a picture.

Coitenly! Here you go.






And while I'm at it, here's some other vehicles I've had trouble identifying both the model and the manufacturer.





These I believe are some sort of Mistral ADA Battery, but I'm not 100% sure.



I'm not sure what these trucks are. First thought was some Oshkosh truck or a german MAN truck but neither was the case. Another possibility is Chinese utility truck of some sort.

Thanks for the pictures! The vehicles aren't GHQ I don't think. I would guess them to be Scotia but I'm not an expert. I'm pretty sure the SAM vehicles are Crotale not Mistral though. Check the Scotia or H&R catalogs to see which has such vehicles.

Edit: Checked the Scotia Grendel catalog and they have the Stormer with Starstreak AAGW, Stormer with 20mm and basic Stormer vehicles. They also have Crotale launch and FCR vehicles. I think thats who made your models.

Cool, thanks! Too bad the stormer isn't some rare oddity I could have auctioned off to a collector. Any idea on the trucks though? They've been befuddling me beyond no end.

I believe the truck models are M.A.N. 7000 kg cargo types. The cabin with flat top and 4-door seating looks right.

The SAM's are Scotia Models Crotale (Rattlesnake) for sure.
I have a few in my underfunded South African type Force.
The trucks are molded very similar to others from Scotia too.
Cheers,

The front of these trucks looks wrong for the M.A.N. trucks to my eye. I could be wrong, and I haven't found any pictures on the net yet to support my idea, but they look like PRC trucks.
edit: Here's the closest thing I could find so far.



Now the profile isn't the same, but it could be a larger version of this basic truck, maybe.

I think the truck is a CQ261 by Scotia.
If you Google CQ261 there is an image of one painted up.
Cheers,

Bingo! I think that's it.

Paul

indeed. seems to be. The spare tire placement and wheel arrangement matches.
