road trip!!!! it's funny as Americans we mess around with
a hobby, take the truck for a spin up or down the drive way
or blast the boat around the pond and go back home..
BUT the Europeans go to a whole other level with there
hobbies. These guys with that monster big rig playground
or there is a place for scale boats with harbors bridges and
the works. way to go guys!!!

I know your pain when it comes to the small M2 screws and nuts on the Wedicos, keep at it and one day you will reach the finish line. I'm not quite there myself but hopefully in 2012 I get there.

If it's the white volvo you're referring to, then I think that he will be posting it in here in a while.


and thanks for the comment on the orange and white volvo, it a replica of my old truck from back in the nineties.

Default A VOLVO and a couple of KINGS, Scania 143 project.

LOL yeah no video this time sorry




So here is my new project, it's going to be a mix of parts, the cab is a Scania 143 streamliner from german company BRAND a sub company of SCALE-ART, WEDICO profi frame, with a modified WEDICO front axel so TAMIYA wheels can fit it.


first pic is with WEDICO wheels, they look just a little small with the Scania cab.



and then with the TAMIYA wheels and lowprofile tyres from VERKERK





WEDICO axel modified to fit TAMIYA wheels






Thanks for looking

Well if you try to get away from the wife, we'll find a place for you to stay near the tinytown, just bring your truck

Had a little building time for the first time in ages, and we bought a R620 SCANIA for my little buddy Johannes, he's 12 years old and it's his first RC-truck, its a BLUE EDITION kit set up as a twinsteer.



we also started on a trailer for him.







first test drive with the trailer!





then it all went a little overboard, and we went and got a BLUE EDITION cab for an old SCANIA frame I had lying around



























also got a bit of work done on the LARGRCAR, moved the cab about a 1/3" forward, so the grill and bumper fits a bit better.



LOWRIDING






and last but not least, a couple pics from a road trip last saturday

1932 VOLVO



1960 something VOLVO 475



1967/68 VOLVO 495



VOLVO FH16




my good buddy Johannes in front of the FH.

Is that a private Volvo collection? Some seriously nice machines there. Interesting, I never noticed before that the Volvo emblem is a "male" symbol. Also interesting is that Volvo only went to cab over in mid-late 60's, before that the trucks were kinda US style.

Your own builds are really great too, you have some really clean trucks there, nice work!
