142H Scania

I have sat back on picked up some good ideas and how to from this forum so i thought it was about time i posted the truck i have been working on
It a 142H Scania with a drop deck trailer. When i got the ?Scania kit it reminded me of one of the companies that shifted my furniture during one of my moves around WA.

The roo bar is a bit rough its my first attempt of scratch building from a photo of the real truck i'm in the process of re doing it after i finish messing around with some re builds i picked up.

Cool scania.

That looks real neat. Sweet looking jigger.

A gumboot , a very clean gumboot . Good job mate .

Cool gumboot mate. Good job.

Thanks for your comments.
I always called the scania like this one a shopping tolley but gumboot fits. I am working on a couple of boxes i picked up on ebay from a local west aussie 6 prime movers and three trailers in various stages of construction and disrepair. all parts were in a couple of boxes so it has been a case of strip down and rebuild and hope you can find the extra parts you need to finish them. I will take some photo's and put up for comment in the next couple of days.

Neat Scania

Real nice work on this - looks great.

i thought it would look better as a road train so i added the containers and made a dolly out of a spare dual axles i had

Nice work:aus:

Looks great but right there you can see my issue with truck models.  They are so damn big!
Do you have room to display that?  I wouldn't have.

i am currently in negotiations with the wife on that i want to convert my daughters bedroom as she has finally moved out.

Don't get to excited mate , she will be back . My two came back

Convert it quick.  Then when she returns she'll have to live in the garage...

Geez fred , why didnt i think of that !
