Nice models and all in very good condition, like a new one. Please remember that there are two variations of this rare model. You can see it from the opposite side of the wheels:
a) with concave or shaped inner side of the wheel
b) with almost smooth or flat inner side of the wheel

I'd like to ask George, Greg, Numi, Jason, Hugh...and other guys here who has Jumbo Crane with BPW ø12x45 in his collection to check the rear wheels. Personally, I would like to know which variation is more rare, with shaped or smooth wheels.

Mine is sold on with the rest of my collection and I can't remember the details of the back sides.
It might be time to start my "Bucket List."

One cannot do much with all the monies in this world but can do much more if he strives toward contentment.

Concave (but it looks to me to be more the result of material shrinkage on cooling than by design).

one wheel is smooth...the other not entirely smooth but not entirely concaved
Please use a web hosting site (like photobucket) to store pictures so you can post them here, using attachments makes it hard to view the pictures when you have to scroll to see them. Seeing comparisons of models is hard to see with attachments too.
