  M-3 HALFTRACK
To distinguish the M3 halftrack from the M2 halftrack, note that the longer M3 body extends further beyond the tracks while the M2 body stops close to the end of the tracks.
The M-3 Halftrack was widely used by mounted units during World War II and afterwards.
It was a slightly longer upgrade of the similar M2 halftrack with additional rear armor, a rear door, a winch and other changes.

  Polish C4P tractor / wz.34 halftrack car   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
Two halftracks wz.34 should be in each Vickers or 7TP tank company as repair vehicles (in the 2nd Light Tank Battalion in 1939 there were even 12 halftracks wz.34, in the 21st light tank company there were 3).
Two halftracks wz.34 were assigned to each armoured train as a repair patrol (they could have the rails-riding device fitted or be carried on support train's flat-cars).
Apart from that, the wz.34 halftracks were used as troop carriers in the 10th Mot.

 CNN - Cartoon general gets lesson in sexism - July 6, 1997
Halftrack is known by Beetle Bailey fans for ogling his aptly named secretary, Miss Buxley, a character modeled on Marilyn Monroe.
Halftrack's new awareness is not the first time cartoonist Walker found his strip out of step with the times.
Halftrack will no longer leer, or ask the shapely Miss Buxley to file things in the bottom drawers so he can see her legs, Walker says.

 Halftrack   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
Over time, he had fl market technicians upgrade his chassis and the attached weapons, replacing the slug thrower on the left side with an energy-based weapon, both reducing the amount of bullets he needed to carry and increasing his tactical options, as some superhumans were highly resistant to bullets but less resistant to energy-based attacks.
Halftrack is a bitter man, having spent over 20 years with a tank chassis instead of his legs because of the Army.
Halftrack's body from the waist down is a miniature tank chassis about 4 feet long by 3 feet wide, painted green, with a.50 caliber machine gun mounted on one side and a Blaster Auto Cannon mounted on the other.

 Re: Broken Units in a Halftrack -- Squad Leader Discussion Forum
If the unit is broken during the movement phase, as defensive fire is taken per rule 16.7, then yes the vehicle would have to expend the 2 MP for the disembarking.
The broken unit could remain "under" the halftrack until a legal rout path became available, per the parenthetical comment after rule 13.42 in the rulebook.
However, a different twist on this is rule 47.9 that permits broken units in halftracks to remain in the halftrack.

 M3 halftrack Cliches   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
The US built and operated only one major type of halftrack during WW2, the M-3, which was armoured, it was also used by the British and other Allied forces.
Sometimes, the M3 is further modified by having slots cut in the sides and transverse seating fitted, a common feature of soft skin German halftracks - not armoured ones - this compounds the error in using the M-3, since it is an armoured vehicle.
It should be noted that the Germans did sometimes use captured M-3s (just as the allies also used captured German halftracks) but not to the extent that war films would have us believe.

 Airfix 02318 - M5A1 Halftrack   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
The Airfix model shown here is advertised as an M3A1 Halftrack, but the flat section mudguards, the hinged top section of the hull sides, and the vehicle dimensions point to a M14 Multiple Gun Motor Carriage supplied to Britain under Lend-Lease and re-converted to the M5A1 Halftrack configuration.
The Airfix model is incorrectly advertised as a White M3A1 Halftrack serving with the US Army in Normandy, when in fact it is a British M5A1 Halftrack conversion of the IHC M14 Multiple Gun Motor Carriage manufactured by International Harvester Co. of Chicago, Illinois.
The Airfix model of the M5A1 Halftrack is an excellent choice for wargamers who look for cheap and serviceable armoured personnel carriers to equip their British Motor Battalions.

Halftrack used to have wheels on front for the handling like a car and the tracks to cross rough terrain.
Yes, a bump might help it, but i think its pretty neet as it is. The only thing i would suggest would be a slight shine to some parts to reinforce the metalic idea, even painted trucks have a bit more shine than youve got at the moment
(just as a side note, all 'halftracks' have wheels on the front and tracks on the back, thats where the name comes from.
