Road Repair Tractor 9
MOC: Road Repair Tractor. A modern interpretation of the classic set 6647, Highway Repair from 1980.
My old set, which I was given when I was probably around four years old, meets my updated, slightly more detailed version. I feel obliged to mention two sticker-related pieces of information: a) The original set did feature black and yellow hazard stickers on the sides and back of the trailer, which mine is sadly missing - they were STAMPs (stickers across multiple parts) and disintegrated a long time ago. But - b) Note the surprisingly good condition of the vest sticker, which has survived a lot of playing over the years, and still sticks stubbornly to the part, more than 35 years after it was originally applied! That's pretty impressive.
