The Caterpillar D7E Dozer "MVS Zeppelin" was released in a limited edition of ??? pieces for Zeppelin as #55224? by Norscot in 20??. I'm now the happy collector with in possession the scale model with certificate #1039.
Zeppelin Cat (Zeppelin Baumaschinen GmbH) is the exclusive German importer of Caterpillar construction equipement. Every now and then they release a limited edition Caterpillar scale model in the red "Zeppelin MVS" house style. So "secretly" I started collecting them all -)
I am very curious which Caterpillar scale models have been released by Zeppelin Cat in scale 1:50 and/or if you own (double) Caterpillar scale models in the "Zeppelin MVS" house style, please contact me via info@minimovers.nl
The 1:50th scale model of the Caterpillar D7E Dozer in the original Caterpillar factory colors was already released by Norscot in 2009 under #55224.
This scale model of the Caterpillar D7E Dozer is a particularly beautiful replica of one of the latest innovations from the Caterpillar Medium Dozer program
Most notable is the single lift cylinder of the dozer blade. This is placed in the middle of the machine and in line with the GPS installation and the exhaust so that the operator always has an optimal working view to the front.
