Land Rover breakdown vehicle - looking for plans of the lifting gear/jib

[bootneck]

I am building a couple of Tamiya and Italeri 1:35 scale Land Rover kits and I would like to finish one of them as a recovery vehicle, as in this image.  Can anyone help by providing drawings and/or dimensions for the lifting frame on the back please?

 

cheers,

Mike

Do a search for Harvey Frost 30cwt pickup crane. You should find an old brochure with measurements, during my search for the same that is the best I could find. Pity you don't want a 1/24 version as you can buy them here

I found the brochure in one of the LR Forums https://www.lrukforums.com/threads/harvey-frost-crane-brochure.225888/

Hello MB,

that brochure is excellent, as is the view of the model;  thank you.  

Whilst looking for breakdown vehicles, this ex-WD version appeared on the TV the other night.  The film was dated 1959.  Anyone know what type it is?  Also, is there a kit of it in 1:35 scale?

 

cheers,

Mike

 I think it is a Chevrolet C-15A No. 13 cab.

 

In 1.72 scale IBG has some variants.

 

One is here:
