zodiac ◊ 2024-02-26 13:54	Did other countries make mechanical horses as well? Like OM or Pegaso?

Lateef ◊ 2024-02-26 21:06	Found it, it's a later FAR CM62, based on the Scammell. Early versions were similar to the original, not sure what year these modernized versions were introduced.

This drawing should in theory tell all the models, but it's rather dizzy https://www.flickr.com/photos/14024074@N05/6289716971 . CM 70 like this https://cars-et-bus.fr/un-far-cm70-au-club ? Or CM 75 like this https://www.flickr.com/photos/xavnco2/26402102223 ? -- Last edit: 2024-02-27 10:14:04
