URSUS C-385a - A Classic Polish Agricultural Tractor

Hello, I wanted to show You my model of a classic Polish old iron - Ursus C-385A, a 1973 front assist variant of the infamous 1969 C-385, which was also known as Zetor Crystal 8011. This vehicle was a pinnicle design of Polish, Czech, Slovakian, and - for the "A" variant - Romanian engineers. It was the first ever agricultural tractor to include a full cab suspension, and one of the first to have a powershift transmission, with 16 speeds forward This vehicle was powered by an inline 4, 4.5 litre ZTS Martin diesel engine, Z-8001, outputing 82 horsepower and 268Nm of torque at 1130 RPM.

I built this one for the sake of it's great looks, combining what was great about the style of 60's and 70's in european tractors into a single design. I also wanted to show the world a piece of a niche history of middle european engineering, which was at it's prime back then.

Now, when the model is casted into a brick form, You can put it together by Yourself, and present it on Your shelf. The model was done with great attention to the detail, with proper proportions and fully modeled interior (disclaimer: It's a wide tire variant due to avalibe tire pieces, hence the mudguard extensions). It has steerable wheels and working front axle suspension, therefore You can pose it to Your will. The rear three point hitch is also somewhat adjustable.
