1:43 Multicar Fumo Sklápěč (2008) - Červená

The Multicar Fumo with a tipping body in 1:43 scale, a red configuration

A finished collector model of the small Multicar Fumo utility body carrier with a tipping body in 1:43 scale from the Abrex brand. The model is assembled and painted, and you buy it ready to go straight into a display case or a scene. The configuration is red, that is, a color common with maintenance and technical services and with company fleets. The figure 2008 in the name denotes the configuration of the real subject the model refers to.

The real subject

The Multicar is a small utility vehicle of German make built around the idea of a carrier of interchangeable bodies. A small width and a short wheelbase allow it to work on sidewalks, in parks, on company grounds, at airports and in narrow lanes an ordinary truck cannot reach. The Fumo generation is newer and roomier than the older lines and offers a wide range of bodies from sweeping and spreading through tank to tipping ones. The tipping body is among the most widespread variants, used for carrying grit, spoil, leaves and small construction waste away. In the Czech Republic and in Slovakia these vehicles are well known from municipal technical services.

The workmanship of the model

Who the model is for

For collectors of utility and municipal vehicles who are putting a line of vehicles together in a single scale, and for modelers who need a finished vehicle for a scene with no building and painting. The red configuration also suits those who build a collection by the color versions of one type.

This is a finished collector model, not a kit. The design of the base and the packaging differ between individual series, so verify any details before you buy.
