Efsi – T-Ford 1919 Pickup Truck "Harborn & Sparkhill"


Scale model of a pickup truck, the T-Ford 1919, made by Efsi. I do not know the reference of this model and to which series it belongs. It is made in Holland, possibly in the 1980s. Plastic cab and cargo bed in dark green. Metal hood, fenders and running boards painted in olive green. Removable tarp in beige plastic. "HARBORNE & SPARKHILL" printed on the cargo bed sides. Metal base painted in black. Windshield glazing represented in transparent plastic. Interior cab details in white plastic. Plastic wheels, dark green rims, orangey plastic tires (which I jokingly call "caramel tires") with molded shoulder blocks.The ensemble simulates wooden "artillery wheels", used on the Ford Model T until the mid-1920s. No suspension. The nominal scale is 1:62 and the overall length is approximately 2.8 in. About 1.2 oz. This model represents a pickup truck derived from the Ford Model T from 1919. It is made by Efsi in several versions. 

This pickup truck, the T-Ford 1919, is in my collection under the themes "American Vehicles" and "Vans & Pickup Trucks". ●

Cerca de 33 g. Este modelo representa uma camioneta derivada do Ford Model T de 1919. É feito pela Efsi em diversas versões.
