Deluxe Innovations - 991902 - Truck, Tractor Trailer, 40 Foot - J.B. Hunt - Decal Set

Specific Item Information: Deluxe Innovations will be offering truck cab decals in names to match some of their recent trailer runs. They will be sized to fit the Volvo tractor recently released by Kato and in fact have the “Volvo vent” included as a decal element (although they are not shown on all the artwork). They are also appropriate for other brand tractors and will be produced for us by Microscale. Each set will have enough decals for at least 4 units with correct cab numbers plus some “0 to 9” sets so you can make your own unit numbers.

These tractors can be seen throughout the nation’s highways pulling Swift and M.S. Carriers trailers. They are usually white and the logo comes right up over the side windows.

Brand/Importer Information: DeLuxe Innovations is a "wholesale manufacturer" of model trains. We manufacture scale replica train models and sell them to hobby shops and distributors worldwide. 2013 marked the 20 year anniversary of DeLuxe Innovations brand trains. There are over 25 body styles in our product line and all of the cars in our single and multi-car packs have different road numbers. DeLuxe Innovations, Inc. is owned by Dave Ferrari, founder of Squeak N Products. We are located in Midland Park, New Jersey. When Dave purchased the business it was located in Burbank, California which would have been a bit of a long commute so the move to the East Coast was planned. Our first East Coast location was in Whippany, NJ along the Whippany River.

The business was started in 1993 by George Johnsen and Roberta Liebreich in Burbank, California. They had a philosophy that just wouldn't allow using a coal car as a "stand in" for a woodchip car, or printing any and all boxcar paint schemes on a PS-1. Starting with the release of the first ever etched metal parts for a ready to run car (1994's Twinstack's metal walkways) through the full dimension underframe and etched metal roofwalk (1996's 1944 AAR Boxcar) to the challenging RoadRailer system (2000), our products have been accurate to target the modeler or enthusiast.
