GENERAL INFO

Taking over its Major Pack counterpart in 1967, the 4B- GMC TRACTOR & FRUEHAUF HOPPER TRAIN was first released in a long E4 box and even bared the NEW MODEL mention. The picture is superb, showing the model with a refinery background. The F2 box, even longer, shows the model in a sumptuous mountain scene, both on the inside panel and the back of the box.

RARITY

There is no particularly rare box for this model.
