Austin built over 17,000 K3 series chassis from 1939 until mid-1945, mainly for general service trucks.   The early pattern had an open cab with detachable canvas top and 34x7 dual rear tyres.   The subject of this kit is the later type, with all-steel enclosed cab and single 10.50x16 tyres.    Along with the Bedford OY, the Austin K3 remained in service with the British Army well into the 1950s.
