Model Announcement - Cat 349E L Excavator in two versions

We are excited to announce the most recent addition to our 1:48 scale Cat diecast model line: the Cat 349E L Excavator.

The Machine:
The 349E continues the industry standards for general, quarry, and heavy construction applications set by the 300 Series family of excavators. The operator's station has everything needed to meet the needs for comfort and productivity. All systems can be monitored easily on the large LCD display. The Cat C13 ACERT diesel engine delivers up to 425 horsepower, powering an extensive range of Cat Work Tools for the 349E including buckets, compactors, grapples, thumbs, rakes, rippers, and shears. Quick couplers allow one person to change work tools in seconds for maximum performance and flexibility on a job site.

The Models:
CCM is producing the 1:48 scale die-cast model of the 349E L Excavator in two versions: the 349E L quick coupler with HD (Heavy Duty) boom and stick which includes two different sized detachable work buckets, and the 349E LME with mass excavator boom, stick and bucket. Each version also features functioning variable gauge long undercarriage systems, allowing the track assemblies to be posed at full width or narrowed for transport. All aspects of the 349E L are modeled to the usual level of CCM's exacting detail, including hydraulic lines, opening cab, and access to full engine compartment.

Approximate dimensions are 9.5" long, 3.25" wide, 5" tall. Price and production quantities are yet to be determined for these pieces, but each will be produced in a limited edition.

As always, you must remember to call us so you can be placed on the request list for this limited edition model by contacting us today. Those on the request list will be given priority over others when the model is delivered. We expect demand for these models to be high, so do not wait to get on the list.
