This log transporter consists of a yellow and red Mercedes truck with swivelling and orange extending crane and operating winch. The separate matching bolster trailer is towed by the winch 'cable', which can be wound in or out to accommodate different lengths of log. It can also be hauled up onto the truck via drop-down ramps, for transportation without a load. A brake lever on the trailer prevents it rolling off the truck.
The crane has a log 'grabber' for lifting the two plastic logs supplied, and there are retractable stabilisers at the sides. The bolsters on the truck and trailer may be folded. The truck has a tilt cab, and is equipped with silver mirrors, a detailed grille, and a beige interior with black steering wheel.
This one is generally in excellent condition, with near mint paintwork. Everything works, but please note the rivet that holds the 'grabber' to the crane is loose so it falls off. Also, there are two plastic logs and I believe there should be three.
The window box is very worn, although the window has no splits.
