Breaker one-nine, Breaker one-nine, can you make some room in your rockin’ chair for four mean, heavy haulers???? That’s right, here they come, the first release in a series of four 1974 GMC Astro 95 COE (Cab Over Engine) semi trucks from Auto World. There are 4 distinct paint jobs on each and two different van body trailers and two different tanker trailers. As with the new 4-Gear release, Auto World has only two model numbers in this release, and 4 very unique paint designs for the trucks and 2 each for the trailers. The trucks ride on the venerable X-Traction chassis with the tandem wheels attached to the body assembly itself. The trucks come in blue with a chrome tanker, black with a black tanker, red with a silver/grey van body trailer and a brown metallic with a chrome van body trailer. The trucks have a guide pin in front and rear and the tandem wheels on the trailer also have 2 guide pins. I was concerned they may not navigate through a 6 inch curve, but they cruised right around with no hanging or snags. But that’s enough squawking from me, we’ll let the trucks do the talkin’!
And with a couple of previously released AW cars you can stage your favorite trucker movie scene! Wait-a-minute, is Roscoe in the wrong movie???? Happy Hauling!
