Handcrafted Model Truck and Trailer
- IFA W50 Vintage Wood and Metal Model Truck with Tarpaulin Trailer (1970-1980) -
1:10 scale, over 1000 hours of pure labor.
A rare, large, handcrafted vintage toy truck model from the mid-20th century, made from a combination of wood and metal. The model impresses with its detailed, handcrafted construction: a real wooden platform, metal frame elements, period-style red wheels, clean lines, and a hand-stitched tarpaulin. The vehicle features a bright green metal cab reminiscent of iconic European truck designs of the 1970s and 1980s.
The IFA W50 is a truck from the former East German Industrial Association for Vehicle Construction (IFA), introduced in 1965. The set includes a wooden side-walled trailer with a tubular frame and original tarpaulin, as well as a rear-sided tarpaulin trailer, which is a rare find in its preserved condition. The details – such as the metal clamps, bolts, drawbar, and metal chassis – are all original and typical of the period. This model is not only valuable for toy collectors but also a special display piece for enthusiasts of mid-20th-century industrial and vehicle design.
