Description
This lot comprises a detailed, handcrafted wooden model of a conventional-style semi-truck tractor and a matching detachable flatbed trailer. The model is constructed from several varieties of wood in contrasting tones, featuring a natural clear-coat finish. Darker wood is utilized for specific details including the front bumper, side steps, fuel tanks, and twin vertical exhaust stacks. The tractor cab is equipped with dual roof-mounted air horns, side-view mirrors, and a headache rack positioned behind the cab. The flatbed trailer features a matching headache rack and connects to the tractor via a functional hitch consisting of a wooden peg and a metal eye. All wheels are carved from solid wood. The construction and design appear consistent with artisan woodworking plans. No manufacturer marks, signatures, or labels are present.
