Vintage Ertl 1/24 John Deere 9500 Maximizer Die-Cast Combine Serial 2807

A highly detailed vintage 1/24 scale precision die-cast metal toy combine harvester manufactured by Ertl. This substantial model replicates the John Deere 9500 Maximizer, finished in classic agricultural green with iconic yellow trade decals and clean black detailing.
Key Features & Components:
Chassis Markings: The lower green metal structural frame rail is legibly stamped with production casting code 2807.
Interchangeable Front Heads: Includes two distinct operational front headers—a black-reel grain head assembly and a pointed green corn head unit with molded auger spirals.
Functional Hardware: Outfitted with a long, pivoting green plastic unloading auger arm on the upper deck, a top open grain tank hopper, an enclosed driver cab with smoky black window inserts, and a detailed operator ladder.
Wheel Configuration: Heavy-duty setup featuring deep-lugged black rubber front drive tires over yellow rims paired with independent rear steering wheels.
Condition Report:
The combine harvester is in good, structurally intact vintage condition. All mechanical functions operate properly, including smooth wheel rotation, free header attachment adjustments, and pivoting auger movements. The green painted finish and side decals remain bright, showing light play wear consisting of minor surface scuffs, small paint chips along lower casting edges, and slight dust accumulation in the tight corners.
