Phase 1 Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 http://www.ebay.com/itm/First-Gear-Eastwood-Automobilia-1960-Model-B-61-Mack-Tractor-40-0001-1-34-SC-18G-/201889154723?ul_noapp=true&nma=true&si=tv8gXZLthIi1WXUqazTvvcnnVHQ%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 I didn't know these were that sought after. I have a First Gear B=61 and was pleased to see the price, but then realized that it is not the same. Not as detailed and the hood and doors do not open. Was this a special model, or maybe an earlier version? 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/49614-first-gear-b-61/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
j hancock Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 The listing is wrong when they call this model a 1/34. The die cast shown on ebay is 1/25 scale. Definitely larger and more detailed than the FG 1/34 scale products. 1/25 production numbers are a lot less than the 1/34 size. I have the same 1/25 tractor stashed away so I like the price! 2 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

james j neiweem Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Would be nice if someone would make B-61's in 1/64 to go along with FG short tub dump trailers Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/49614-first-gear-b-61/#findComment-368007 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Ditchkus Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Paul I like all of them but the B-61 Integral Sleeper looks great. Sanders,spokes and looks like spread axle.Great classic colors.That was trucking in high cotton. Nice job. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/49614-first-gear-b-61/#findComment-368952 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamaican Bulldog Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 The Eastwood B model 1/25 was my first of dozens of collectible Mack trucks including resin models. I always wished that First Gear would have made a 1/25 R or DM model in that detail.
