1/50 Scale CAT 966A Wheel Loader Model
This 1/50 scale diecast model replicates the CAT 966A Wheel Loader produced from 1960 through 1963.

The bucket raises, lowers and tilts for realistic positioning.

The model is made of diecast metal with some small plastic parts.
Dimensions and Collector Suitability
The model measures approximately 5.07 inches long, 2.15 inches wide and 2.75 inches high. It is designed for adult collectors and hobby enthusiasts rather than for play. Buyers who need a toy suitable for children or a larger scale model for dioramas should consider other options.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the bucket raises, lowers and tilts correctly after unboxing the 1/50 CAT 966A Wheel Loader?
Gently move the bucket through its full range — it should raise, lower and tilt smoothly without binding; the diecast metal arms and hydraulic cylinders ahead of the cab operate as on the 1960-1963 prototype.
What comes in the box with the 1/50 CAT 966A Vintage Series model and what must I supply?
The box contains the diecast loader with era-specific operator figure, real rubber tires, detailed cab interior, metal collector card and die-cut foam insert; no batteries, tools or assembly are required.
Which version of the 1/50 CAT 966A should I choose for a historically accurate 1960-1963 representation?
This Vintage Series release replicates the 966A built from 1960 through 1963 with turbocharged diesel engine, power shift transmission, one-finger shifting controls and 2-3/4 cubic yard bucket in authentic Cat Machine Yellow.
