44 refrigerator truck casting variations

These may be a bit trivial but I found them interesting so on the off chance I am not alone I have uploaded some pictures of the floor inside the back door of the container.
All are Superfast madels.

Great stuff, you have good eyes. My eyes are not so good anymore.
Seen that you are not long member. Nice to meet you.

It's a long time that somebody showed me something that i haven't seen yet.
Thanks, where do you live ?

I'm never really sure about whether we should include ejector ring variations like these. The question in my mind is always whether they are the result of a deliberate design change or merely reflect increasing wear in the tooling. (Personally I favour that latter explanation.)

thanks Kert, must be heaps of ejector ring variations across the range of MB.

Idris, when i cant find any significant variations i entertain myself with this kind of trivia.

i agree with your view re the ejector rings but what do you think about the base detail versus no detail?
thats definitely a casting variation.

...what do you think about the base detail versus no detail? thats definitely a casting variation.

Most definitely, but why is it there? What problem did this particular casting variation solve?

[slicc64]

That's a good question.
We would need to know which one came first to work that out.
