In USA, still:  - Mack Anthem 64T 6x4/2 tractor (First Gear model), - Manac Trailer 53' Combo Flat 2-axle flatbed semi-trailer (modified(*) Diecast Masters model), - 2 Wacker-Neuson compact excavators with front blades: EW 65 (wheeled) and ET 65 (tracked) (Siku models), - CIMC 20' maritime reefer container (Diecast Masters model),    As a bonus, another First Gear Mack Anthem, which is modeled... in a 1/54 scale! (thanks to Craig of having indicated to me that strange scale). Unfortunately, the model was already displayed in that forum (before I could verify myself the model scale):  Note (*): the semi-trailer had its king pin replaced by one usable on First Gear models, the folding landing legs system removed and landing legs glued on each side of its chassis. Regards. Guy

I thought for a long time that the scale indicated below theses models was wrong. These cars are in fact very small (3.30 and 3.34 metres long respectively, reproduced in 1/50 and 1/51 scales by the Japanese modeler):   - left: Honda Beat 4x2/2 coupe car (Tomica model), - right: Honda S 800M 4x2/2 coupe car (Tomica model). To be continued. Guy

In England still:    - Scammell Crusader 6x4/2 tractor (modified(*) Corgi model), - King Trailers GTL83/3H-19.5 ultra-low bed 3-axle semi-trailer (modified(*) Corgi model), - FIAT-Allis FL 20 tracked loader with ripper (modified(*) Old Cars model),  Notes (*): the tractor had its fifth wheel modified to fit all my semi-trailers and its decals removed, the semi-trailer received a king pin suitable for tractor's 5th wheel. The tracked loader, one on the few 1/50 scale models of that Italian modeler (generally committed to the 1/43 scale), was found at low price on ebay: it seems to be repainted and to have received an Italian decal. Regards. Guy

Last road trip in England (for the time-being):  - FIAT 619 N1 4x2/2 tractor (modified (*) Mercury model), - Crane-Fruehauf 2-axle flatbed semi-trailer (modified(*) Corgi model), - sheeted load (Corgi load),    Notes (*): the tractor received Lion Toys wheels, its original fifth wheel was sawn-off and replaced by an inserted WSI one. The semi-trailer received a king pin compatible with tractor's 5th wheel. Its load was kept unchanged. Regards. Guy

The tracked loader, one on the few 1/50 scale models of that Italian modeler (generally committed to the 1/43 scale), was found at low price on ebay: it was left unchanged seems to be repainted and to have received an Italian decal According to a reader of a French forum, the Old Cars FIAT-Allis tracked loader was produced in different colours, red included, and received different decals. This one could well be a pure company product, hence modifications to my previous post. I hope it helps. Guy
