CCM

Classic Construction Models (CCM) is a U.S. company specializing in premium diecast and brass replicas of construction equipment, founded in 1995 and headquartered in Beaverton, Oregon. CCM is renowned for producing highly detailed, limited-edition scale models of Caterpillar, Bucyrus, Manitowoc, and other heavy machinery prototypes. Their catalog emphasizes prototypical accuracy, fine craftsmanship, and collectible exclusivity, making CCM models prized among enthusiasts who value both realism and rarity. By focusing on historically significant and modern construction equipment, CCM has established itself as a leader in the high-end diecast and brass model industry.  

The company’s product line includes bulldozers, excavators, loaders, shovels, cranes, and mining trucks, often produced in 1:48 and 1:87 scales. Each model is manufactured in limited runs, frequently fewer than 1,000 pieces, and features precision detailing such as functional tracks, articulated booms, and authentic paint schemes licensed from Caterpillar and other manufacturers. CCM also produces brass models for collectors seeking museum-quality craftsmanship, with hand-assembled components and prototypical fidelity that surpass standard diecast offerings. Their models are distributed through specialty dealers and direct sales, often selling out quickly due to high demand and limited availability.  

Classic Construction Models continues to resonate with collectors worldwide by offering products that combine exclusivity, authenticity, and fine craftsmanship. Their Caterpillar bulldozers, Bucyrus shovels, and Manitowoc cranes are celebrated for their ability to replicate heavy machinery with unmatched realism. With a strong emphasis on prototypical accuracy, licensed branding, and collectible value, CCM remains a top choice for hobbyists searching for diecast and brass models that balance realism with rarity. By providing versatile, historically grounded, and hobbyist-focused products, Classic Construction Models has secured its place as a respected name in the global diecast and construction equipment modeling community.
