The team at CMC released official images of the LO 2750 Platform Truck (M-169) replica.  The numerous images will highlight the extreme attention of detail CMC delivers in its models.  No less that 2059 parts are associated with the truck, and hand-crafted to boot.  The tire detail alone is worth the price of admission.

About the LO 2750 Platform Truck…  “After the global economic crisis of the late 1920s was over, an industrial resurgence was looming large everywhere. The Daimler-Benz AG lost no time in developing new, innovative commercial vehicles at its factory in Gaggenau, which made a name for efficiency and technical reliability. The offer of diesel-powered trucks back then was nothing short of being revolutionary.”
