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.

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.

In Great Britain:





- Volvo F88 4x2/2 tractor (modified(*) Corgi model),
- Carrimore 12T lowloader fitted with an extra-low bed and a detachable rear axle (modified(*) Corgi Toys model),
- Kramer 411 4x4/2 wheeled loader (NZG model),





Notes (*): the Corgi tractor had its fifth wheel modified to accept my other semi-trailers and the Corgi Toys semi-trailer was repainted, it received in addition Lion Toys wheels and a king pin compatible with tractor's 5th wheel.

Regards.

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.
