Scale Models

Recommended Posts

Hi there,

Being a long way from the US we also love the trucks you drive. On the forum I had a laugh about the discussion about COE trucks. Here in Europe we hardly see the conventionals and when there is one it make the heads turn.

Now, I'm not a truckdriver but as a hobby I build scalemodels of trucks. My collection is about 100 builds and still about 100 in the box waiting to be build. Quite a lot of Macks but also Autocar, Peterbilt, Kenworth and others. I've decided to join because I'm looking for info about trucks all the time to make accurate models. In Holland we have started with a small group of modellers to collect information about scalemodel trucks but also real trucks. We have a website for that aswell. By this some photo's of one of my Mack models.

Thanks

Hessel

Thats a very nice looking superliner.. but that trailer...um,a...yea :banana:

Seriously tho... you did a great job on both models.. I have a small collection of 1/25 and 1/24 Semi trucks as well. mostly macks... I use to buy all my stuff from a company called spalding trading and shipping? they delt with lots of aftermarket parts from all over the world. I think the internet dug into their buisness as last I checked they had very few parts or models in stock

We the unwilling, Lead by the unqualified, are doing the impossible, for the ungrateful.

Trent, that is a European style dump trailer. They do look a bit odd with the super singles and fenders but that's they way they get er done on the other side of the pond.

I like the Combo.
