Description: Cedarapids Reuhl Model Rock Crusher Pitmaster Toy Front Pedestal Pole & Axle- This is a nice reproduction part for your 1940s/1950's Cedarapids Iowa Manufacturing Ruehl Pitmaster Rock Crusher 1/24th Scale Model toy. I bought out an entire collection of Pitmaster parts from a guy who sold parts and restored rock crushers for about forty years. Over the years he had a number of parts reproduced that were commonly missing or broken. Today I'm selling the Pitmaster Toy Front Pedestal / Pole & Axle assembly, the movable piece that hooks on to the hauler and has the front wheels mounted to it, this piece is either missing or broken on about 30% of all Pitmasters out there today. The part has been reproduced at great expense and rotates just like the original. It does not come with the wheel hubs or the wheels but it does have the correct connecting bolts to mount the hubs. The part is gray in color but you may have to color match the paint for your own toy. These 18" models were very heavy and had about 100 parts, they were given away when you bought a real rock crusher, were used as salesmen samples, and could be bought at the dealerships. They didn't sell well because they were very expensive for their time. Most model rock crushers you find on eBay are either broken, rusted, or missing parts. I also sell the rock crusher instruction booklet in another auction which would make a great companion piece. The information I have show these wonderful models were made during the very late 1940's to about 1954, not many of them survived intact. A lot of people say there were only about 50 of these great toys made, I don't have any records but based on all the original parts I have and the ones I have seen on eBay there had to be hundreds of these toys made, but most are missing parts. I also have a number of other Cedarapids items up for auction
