Last week I received from a very good friend in America
this latest addition in my collection made by Classic Construction
Models (CCM) and today I was able to take it to the photo set:
Classic Construction Models produced two die-cast model versions of the Caterpillar 349E Excavator: the Caterpillar 349E LME with mass excavator boom, stick and bucket and the Caterpillar 349E L quick coupler with HD (Heavy Duty) boom and stick which includes two different sized detachable work buckets.
Each version also features functioning variable gauge long undercarriage systems, allowing the track assemblies to be posed at full width or narrowed for transport. All aspects of the Caterpillar 349E LME are modeled to the usual level of CCM's exacting detail, including hydraulic lines, opening cab, and access to full engine compartment. Retail Price: $269.95 and shipping cost.
My first impression: Unique hand-built and very complete scale model and together with his "brother a nice addition in my Caterpillar 345/349 series. More than well worth the wait! This is a must have for every Caterpillar collector. Both versions are standing side a side in my cabinet.
I will add the complete review with more pictures from the model, machine in 1:1 and background information in the category Hydraulic Excavators So stay tuned for more!
