Steve P Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I have a few questions i hope some of you may be able to answer, i am looking for a model "1/32" would be nice of a late 70s/early 80s Cat tracked loader, i remember a local contractor had one in my area when i was a child and i would go weak at the knees watching it loading the hop waste into the firms Leyland 4 wheel tipper trucks during the late summer around the hop farms in my area, after a bit of research i think the model was a 941 or a 941b, it had a cab without the lights on top. I am wondering has any model firm made one of these classic machines and if so where can i purchase one from, i have searched on the internet but without success, any help would be fantastic..

Steve P Posted November 29, 2011 Author Share Posted November 29, 2011 Thanks chaps,Thats a pity, i am suprised no model firms have made one as i belive they was quite popular machines backs in the 80s. I have seen a few clips of them at work on youtube Nigel, that deep throaty engine note still sounds fantastic and brings back fond memories for me.
