Last updated 6/10/09 The powerful Model 367 is Peterbilt’s most flexible, rugged, and dependable heavy duty vocational truck.  We released our Peterbilt 367 cab in March with a dump truck body and this month we are excited to release the new 1/34 scale diecast Peterbilt 367 with  our exisiting Bridgemaster® Mixer body. The Peterbilt 367 features excellent weight distribution, improved ride and handling, and new front suspension designs.  One of the premium features is the gently sloped, long-length hood which enhances visibility, and allows for a 1,438 square-inch radiator to contain high horsepower engines.   The new hood design offers outstanding toughness, and a new one-piece aluminum grille crown design provides a precise fit and finish with classic Peterbilt styling.  The stainless steel grille provides corrosion-resistant radiator protection.  This new arrangement has a 270" wheelbase. The interior is fuly detailed and the engine detail shows from underneath the detailed transmission and suspension.  The innovative hood design allows for great visibility and allows for a high horsepower engine to fit underneath.  Our existing Bridgemaster® Mixer is constructed from more than 120 parts and features a metal rotating drum cylinder, hopper ladder with folding extension, operators’ platform, drum drive details, rear support tower, and a poseable main chute with 2 extensions.  The extra chutes can be stored in the right side rear racks for transportation.  There is also a soft flexible water line and hosing, and a tag axle that can be positioned in the working or resting position.  Other accessories include a center-mounted water tank, PTO assembly, wash-out hose with nozzle, water tank lines, drum motor lines and authentic “Warning” and “Caution” labels.  The new tooling combination has a visor over the front window, roof mounted air horn and roof lights and oversized floatation tires.  It has a right side vertical exhaust stack, left side fuel tank and right side battery box, air tanks and storage compartment. There also is an optional front bumper signboard.  Weighing in at 2.25 lbs. and made up of over 225 parts, our amazing diecast replica measures 15” long, 3.5” wide and stands 4.35” high.  See this month’s flyers for the first release, the ‘Red/White’ version which will be available in July.   ‘Til next time…   The Folk’s at First Gear
