Model: HO gauge. This tanker is a piece of automotive culture from the fifties - a novelty in 1:87! The model of the Magirus S 7500 once had a large driver's cab, which was quite common in the distribution traffic of the tank farms at the time. However, the rear part of the driver's cab was preferably used as a practical can cupboard. The Magirus round-bonnet truck in the contemporary Shell colors not only brought the fuel to the filling station, but also ensured that the stations were supplied with small amounts of oil cans and other small containers. The structure is characteristic of tanker construction in the 1950s. At that time, the tank structure was completely clad in accordance with the bus design of the time, hoses and mobile fittings were stored behind the side doors. The curved fenders are considered a relic of the late 1930s, when the coachbuilders sent the first large series of tankers onto the streets. The classic tank truck was quite manoeuvrable with two axles and was always able to provide supplies at the gas station.
