Preparing for my 2025 project, I 'need' some seated drivers and passengers for various trucks and other transport, for Government, Rebel and US forces of the Mexican Revolution

There must be something suitable out there,maybe using head swaps as required - can anyone point me in the right direction, ideally from a PP range (of course) but other alternatives considered.

Thanks!

I have to admit I've been using WW1 and ACW/Western personnel as well as head swaps. The Western wagon and Chuck wagon are also handy for areas where motorised transport is in short supply.

I seem to remember there was once a PP WW1 pack of seated EW British infantry/drivers to crew 'Old Bill' buses which would be ideal for both Government and US (with headswaps) units - or is my memory playing tricks?

Are the drivers etc for the Dodge Tourers separate castings and, if so, can they be bought separately?

Doh! Don't know how I overlooked them when I was sorting out my order!

We've all done it. The beauty of the PP ranges is their potential for interchangeability. I used some of the armed women militia from the WW1 Serbian range 16/278 as alternative poses for Soldaderas with a couple of sombreros from head swaps added...
