Re: New Screening plant by Metal Hobi
Looks like a good design, fine details. At 820 USD, no tax, it's about 20% higher priced than a similar kit made in Taiwan, which is not this detailed, so pricing is about 'normal' I would guess....

Re: New Scania Build
Pretty interesting. I know Scania did a try at the North American marked with their trucks back in the 80's, sold a few but did put it on hold after short time. Is it a 'demo truck' at your work,...

Re: New Scania Build
That's right, there is not a single similar panel outside or inside, newest vs older Scania cab;) Just curious, you mean to say there is a new 1:1 Scania in the US?
