I would like to build a structure on top of a flat bed truck in 28mm. Either modern, sci fi, or post apocalyptic ok. Maybe armored. Square or slotted openings for firing. A door. Removable roof. Anyone have any ideas on where I could get things to make such a thing?

Thank you

Harv

Thank you everyone so far. The Google search link is really interesting.
There are several ideas to be had there; but I still would like to find a source for 28mm plastic bits and pcs to do those ideas.

15mm or 10mm pillbox bunkers should fit on the back of a 28mm truck to create the effect you are looking for.
