		    Beautiful!  I hope you share some photos of her built-up.  Or, at least without the packing foam.     |

		    Awesome!  I really like the last shot, with the boom at full extension and low angle.  I was hoping to see a Preiser guy wearing a Rammstein t-shirt and driving a Ferrari, to make the scene 100% accurate.

		    Atlas Crane Service Inc are based in IL, USA.
 The company took the vast majority of this production with very few available to collectors.

		    That is a great looking color scheme.  I'm glad you were able to get one from the batch.

		    Paul, I missed that post of the Wiesbauer AC700.  That's great to see, kind of like a bit of closure.  It reminds me of a very custom, very detailed AC700, made by a wonderful gentleman in the Netherlands, about 20 years ago.  Now, all of us that drooled over it and said "I wish I had that" are now able to.  Erik S. thank you for all you've done for this hobby.Dave
