Greetings from The Netherlands


Recommended Posts

I'm zooming in on the DM with the 4 tier front hitch thinking I was going to read the plaque...…..in Flemish!!!! :pat: What were they tethering 4-ways?

 

Cool Pics!

 

 

Not to hijack your post, but I'm throwing one in. Pretty unit sitting outside our shop this morning.

There is a model company that makes a replica of that F model in 1/50 scale I believe. About $100.00 +

That model company used particulary that F-model truck for prototyping. They took actual measurments off it as I was told by the owner. Now they offer that color scheme and the Overdorp one (shown below).

My guess is the DM front hitch is for pushing. I think for some super heavy loads they run a puller and a pusher, especially for making it over some hills.

If I'm not wrong the company's name is Tecno. Its in The Netherlands and the model is made in 1:50 scale.

TEKNO. Lots of cool macks in 1:50 and 1:34!  1:50 is ok, I can scale it up in the scan for 3D printing in 1:25 and 1:10 for R/C

I would better contact those Tekno guys. Pretty sure they created 3D objects to make the model.

I was just at the ATHS show in Reno this past weekend and the owner of the Overdorp F Model gave this to me. Nice guy and we talked a little. The magazine is for their Mack fan club sort of like the old Overdrive magazine used to be. I can not translated but Tekno stands out as the manufacture.
