Peterbilt 589 1/64 Diecast Model

This 1/64 scale diecast replica of the Peterbilt 589 features a 78-inch mid-roof sleeper cab paired with a 53-foot reefer trailer. It is built from die-cast metal with plastic parts, real rubber tires, and a pivoting fifth wheel for secure trailer attachment. The model arrives in the manufacturer's original unopened packaging with a certificate of authenticity included.

Collectors Seeking Licensed Heavy-Haul Accuracy

The officially licensed detailing suits enthusiasts who want an authentic representation of a specific tractor-trailer combination. The opening hood reveals engine detail, while the cab interior and chassis are accurately reproduced. Buyers looking for a toy with play features beyond display or a different scale should consider other options.

14.5-Inch Display Piece With Fixed Configuration

At approximately 14.5 inches long, 2 inches wide, and 2.5 inches high, the assembled unit fits standard display shelves. The trailer connects via the pivoting fifth wheel but the model does not offer opening doors, a detachable reefer unit, or alternative trailer types. It serves as a single, complete scene rather than a modular system.

Questions about this item

Will the pivoting fifth wheel on this 1/64 Peterbilt 589 connect securely to the included 53' reefer trailer?

Yes. The tractor's pivoting fifth wheel is designed to accept the trailer kingpin so the combination rolls as a single articulated unit right out of the box.

Can the 78-inch mid-roof sleeper cab clear a low-clearance bridge or loading dock modelled in 1/64 scale?

The cab height is approximately 2.5 inches, so any scale structure with a scaled clearance greater than that will allow the truck to pass without contact.

How can I verify the engine detail is accurate after opening the hood on this First Gear model?

Open the hood and compare the visible block, turbo and plumbing to reference photos of a real Peterbilt 589 powerplant; the die-cast casting replicates those components in 1/64 scale.
