This precision-scale brass model replicates the D8H in amazing detail at 1:24 scale. Features include individually linked, free-rolling brass tracks with working track-tensioners; fully replicated engine, a working Carco J-120 winch. Control levers and pedals, a perferated grill and cable-hoisted blade all add to the realism of this model. A finish coat of period “Hiway Yellow” paint and correct vintage markings finish this truly legendary model.

The Caterpillar D8H is one of the most historically significant track-type tractors ever produced. Debuted in 1959, its revolutionary new design boasted more output, greater productivity and better operator control than any large tractor ever made. With more than 50,000 of the H series tractors delivered around the world, it is doubtful that any other large piece of construction equipment manufactured was ever produced in such high volume. The durability and popularity of the D8H is easily verified by the number of these tractors still used today in every conceivable type of earth moving operation – pushing, pulling and ripping their way to legendary status.
