Overview of the 1/35 Ford MUTT and M416 Trailer

The Tamiya 35130 kit models the Ford M151 MUTT, an evolution of the M38A1 "Jeep" developed in the early 1950s by Ford alongside the U.S. Army. The MUTT introduced practical engineering elements like an OHV engine, semi-monocoque bodywork and independent suspension. This scale kit reproduces those hallmarks so modellers can accurately recreate the vehicle that served in roles ranging from ambulance duty to missile support during the Vietnam War.

Included with the MUTT is the M416 cargo trailer, representative of the logistic trailers commonly paired with the vehicle. The trailer adds operational context and display versatility, showing the MUTT's capability to support field transport tasks.

The kit typically includes decals and printed assembly instructions; paints and adhesives are usually purchased separately.
There are third-party parts and detailing sets for 1/35 military vehicles that can enhance suspension, cargo loads or weathering for greater realism.
Basic to intermediate modelling skills are useful for this kit, especially for neat painting and fitting small parts, but careful work can yield excellent results.
Yes, the completed MUTT and trailer make a strong centrepiece for 1/35 military dioramas or standalone displays.
