Where are the pics of them ? I thought they would be displayed at the booth in ConExpo, with the first limited run release for sale now, followed by the second run released in the 2nd quarter of this year. I can't wait to see if Norscot scored with these, or fumbled on the goal line..... Nice intro video from HOLT CAT: HOLT CAT CT660 intro video

Its NORSCOT!!! Its close but not quite there, its front floats arnt the best its still running the crude trailking lowboy with the cast in outriggers, didnt see the dump. However as for the cab detail it pretty good nice lines and seems like the paint is crisp, hopefully they do some other colors. CHris

Very cool looking truck!! I'm not a fan of Cat excavators (especially not the ugly D series), but I love that truck! Nice big hood as well. Anyone with more knowledge about the real thing? Under a hood that size should be a pretty large engine as well! I'll be looking forward to these models. Hopefully they will release some wih a longer cab as well, or at least a longer wheelbase. Perhaps a 4-axle heavy haulage truck...

Best looking trucks I've seen Norscot do yet !
From a detail - price perspective, these will be hot items...the working tarp is a nice touch !?

Still some things left to be desired......my opinion.

I'm not a big fan of the real truck, but the model looks cool for sure. I want to add another dump truck to my collection, I think the Ct-660 might be the next addition. I really like the idea of the working tarp.

The mirrors look horrible, and what is with the fender mirrors? They make the truck look like a freight hauler. The rear fenders (plastic?) and cab detail looks good. The stacks look cheap. I thought the quality would be better for a price of $80.00 - $100.00 (This is my opinion) Ken

I agree with you on the price being so high for the quality. This should be about 50 to 60 bucks at the most. The rear fenders are plastic. I normally wouldn't spend that much for a norscot model but the guy at the cat store at Con expo told me there were 74 lowboys made and the majority of them were damaged in shipping. He said very few were able to be sold so I guess the Conexpo released trucks will be rare.

Yeah I thought about that but I'm happy with it even if it was all made up! All the boxes seemed to have been opened before and ripped. Luckily there was one on the top shelf that looked good so I grabbed it.
