Model History and Information: The Cat® 966 is a full-size wheel loader used for truck loading and load-and-carry work in aggregates, construction, and industry, introduced by Caterpillar in 1960 as a 140-horsepower machine with a 2.75-cubic-yard bucket. It has remained in Caterpillar's lineup through many generations since, including the current M-series, and is one of Caterpillar's best-known wheel loaders. This 1:87 scale replica of the 966M is built to a mass-market specification rather than the finer detail of larger-scale collector replicas, reproducing the loader's articulated steering and general proportions for play and display.
