As the benzene bandage with Aral flag showed
For the booming fuel market, distribution vehicles with attachment tanks were in use everywhere in the 1950s. This had an advantage for the fuel oil and fuel traders, which are still in the process of being set up: They were able to continue using the tank when changing the chassis. The model, which was the inspiration for the 1:87 model, appears in the authentic design of the post-war years, when the benzene association began to use the fuel Aral as a central advertising brand. With the Magirus Sirius, the traditional model makers from WIKING also cultivate the most famous classics of the post-war history! The truck from Ulmer production with the once thundering air-cooled Deutz engine stands for a whole generation of trucks and shaped the streetscape of Germany in the post-war decades. |
