SPRING 2009 UPDATE!
WHAT'S HAPPENING AT CMW?
It’s been a busy time here at CMW over the past several months. The world economic downturn has affected just about every one of us who imports finished product from China. And in our case, one of our factories was forced to shut it doors unexpectedly in late December 2008. This resulted in our entire new product program screeching to a halt.
But fear not! We were able to move our molds and tooling to a terrific new factory and we are back in production. However, we are about 120 days behind with all new tooling development and about 90 days behind with new items based on our current molds and tooling.
The following items are scheduled to be available
at your Dealer
later this Summer:
30242 – 36 Ford Fire Chief Car
30243/50311 – 59 Ford Fire Chief Car |
30244 – 36 Ford Army Staff Car
30245/50312 – 59 Ford Army Staff Car |
30240/50309 – 54 Ford F-700 Heinz Delivery Truck
30241/50310 – 54 Ford F-700 Blatz Beer Delivery Truck |
30258/50325 – 54 Ford F-700 Shell Oil Co. Tank Truck
30259/50326 – 54 Ford F-700 Cities Service Tank Truck |
31152 – Chicago & Northwestern RR Piggy-Back Trailer Set
31153 – Rio Grande Motor Freight Piggy-Back Trailer Set |
We thank you all for your patience and continued support of the CMW Holdings, Ltd. family of Classic Metal Works hobby products.
