Assembly pictures of Chicago's 1959-1960 Mack B85F/Magirus Aerial scale model

Producing a replica of the Chicago Fire Department Mack B85F/Magirus Aerial that is small enough to take home, is a painstaking process. Over 24 months, each of the hundreds of intricately detailed parts are designed, cast or fabricated, painted, decorated, and trimmed...then organized in small bins, ready for assembly. There is no substitute for the laborious tasks that each of the 35 skilled men and women perform. It is a sight to see as each team member patiently adheres each part to another, consistently analyzing the end result. As you scroll down the assembly pictures, take notice of the parts on each workstation and you will gain a greater appreciation for the process. And don't forget to add this classic Mack to your Chicago collection.
