![]() For more information and pictures of the real car please visit: Volvo FH ![]() ![]() This Road Champs cement truck has 1999 on the chassis, which is what I used to arbitrarily select a model year for it. The white portion of the cab is metal, while all of the remaining parts are plastic. The cement barrel rotates and the pour spout at the rear rotates side to side, so there is some decent play value with this one. For size comparison, there is a picture below with a JL GMC Typhoon, which shows the Volvo to probably be about 1/87 scale. ![]() ![]()

I don't recall ever seeing that one on the pegs back in the late '90's/early 2000 but then again...maybe I had enough cement mixers in my collection and just overlooked it. Nice looking toy of a seen everyday construction type model.

I really like these Road Champs castings. I have the Winnebago, Pepsi truck, roll back and they fit nicely with some of the smaller diecast. I have the Road Champs school bus as well though I've had it torn apart for years inside a baggy hoping one day to restore it. |
