Does any one have any info on this model? It states its modeled after a cat but i can't find the maker of the model or find it anywhere else. I tried to figure out how to post a link but i failed, sorry. The model is red on their website and is labeled as an articulated dump truck 6x4. Any info or leads is greatly appreciated

At under 1250 us dollars I would say thats going to be tuff. And you could always add hydros if you choose. looks like a nice unit when all painted up.

My Vario B50 has hauled over 50cy (literally) with virtually zero problems. ;) It cost more than the CTI listed above, but it's also alot bigger too & full hydraulic.

I messaged kevin at CSMI and he said that was an old that is no longer being sold. They are working on a new volvo A40 kit that looks nice, but is more expensive. I purchased an excavator a couple weeks ago so my funds are a little tight right now. Are the izzy dozers still around?

There was only a production run of 10 or so Izzy dozers & they were slow to move that many in about 6 months... little chance of another run anytime soon. Watch the BST on the forum, two have resold in the last couple yrs.

I think it is pretty cool. I remember seeing a few other videos with that truck hauling some dirt. To me, on an articulated dumper, I would prefer actual hydraulics instead of a screw drive. I don't mind screw drives on other dump trucks, just not on a vehicle like this.

Do you have one? Have you seen one in person?

Ive seen those and thought about it. Now I'm thinking of a magom hrc converted bruder? Anyone have any experience with one?

Exactly what i tried. The euro amount listed on the site wouldn't register on the converter.

What does it take to order something from overseas? Does paypal handle the currency conversion? Is it a simple process?
