Specific Item Information: New design with the help of Jeff Schwank. Jeff did extensive work on the cab for this one and we think you will find many places to put this tractor to work. This truck incorporates a new front axle and wheel set that will allow you to pose the front wheels rotated to any position. The cab is a high resolution 3d print and a vacuformed windshield is included. A comprehensive photo-etch fret rounds out the package to allow you to build a very detailed model. See one of the images for parts included in the kit.
Road Name History:
Although they may be molded in color, unpainted and unlettered, undecorated products are marketed to modelers who seek to custom decorate their models for private roads and/or road and/or company names that were not commercially produced by any of the major manufacturers.
Undecorated models are frequently also unassembled or only partially assembled and required modelers to be comfortable with glue, paint and sometimes solder in order to prepare their models for display. Materials for these models can vary but often include plastic, pewter and resin. Models may or may not come with decals or other decorations such as plastic signage, railings and ladders to enhance the appearance of the final product.

Brand/Importer Information: Founded by Joe Warren, in Cherry Valley, California, in 1995, Showcase Miniatures manufactures high quality cast pewter metal, etched brass, and/or laser cut wood model railroad structures, vehicles, and accessories in HO, N, and Z Scale.
Moved to Tuskegee, Alabama in 2012, Walter Vail is Showcase Miniatures current owner and product designer.
In developing new products, Walter employs different methods such as hand sculpting and the use of 3D computer software.
Crafted by a master modeler, who has had his scratch-built science fiction models featured in Kalmbach Publishing's FineScale Modeler magazine, and previously designed products for businesses such as C-in-C Soft Metal Castings, FASA, GHQ, and Ral-Partha Enterprises, the high quality detail exhibited in every Showcase Miniatures product is certainly not a coincidence.
