This is an early 50s H 61 Cherry picker,
an unusual
cabover. They needed a small front to back size to fit longer trailers, and they had to make it pretty tall to accommodate the Cummins diesel. The model is
multipiece kit, and the rooftop on the H61 was 10' 2" off the deck, so the model will sit at about 48
mms in 1/64th scale.
