I knew Consolidated Freightways had gone belly up (a LOT of them older trucking companies have fallen by the wayside), didn't know they got merged into Conway. Thanks for the peek at the model, that should clean up nice. Want to get a look when you patch it up! |

A number of years ago there were mail order dealers who handled the models from the USSR - this was back int the day of hand typed or mimeographed sales sheets. Know one dealer had a large range of the Russian made models. I also had a couple of trading partners - one I recall was in Latvia who I traded ERTL models to for the USSR made pieces. Also the Belarus tractors were being sold in the US in the late 1980's to early 1990's. We had a Belarus dealership in Bowbells, ND (he had sold Case until the CaseIH merger and couldn't afford to update to their computer systems). Thanks for the additional pictures of the fire engines - I couldn't tell from the angle of the picture who made them. |

Yes, it is. If you push down on the yellow tab between the silver ones under the tip of the nose the cockpit compartment will open. Inside are 6 tiny seats.
