Classic Construction Models has released a 1:48 scale model of the Kenworth T800 Tractor and a Rogers Ultima CR50 Lowboy Trailer. The brass models are made using original design drawings and photographs of the real tractor and trailer.

Details include “peeper” and “step-down” windows on the cab, transmission and engine and chrome highlights. Trailer details include working outriggers and D-rings, air and hydraulic lines, and Rogers markings. A Protech headache rack behind the cab and real wood planks on the trailer deck complete this model.

Production is limited to 250 individually numbered and registered models. A certificate of authenticity comes with each model.
