JeroenS Posted December 25, 2020 Author Share Posted December 25, 2020 It's finished! I didn't think I'd be able to get her done so quickly, but all of a sudden she was done! With a month to spare too 🙂 This was a very enjoyable build of a great kit. I love this little truck so much, I'll do another one for sure. It's on the list for my birthday which luckily isn't far away. Well, luckily... I'll be turning 50. Oh well, what can you do... Great presents might help 🙂 Anyway, thanks all for following this build and commenting and liking and such, it's much appreciated.

fightersweep Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 The Scania looks amazing. You've done an incredible job to get it finished in this time. Love the weathered, tired look. Well done! Steve 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCKNEY Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 Congratulations Jeroen that looks amazing, and such a lovely contrast to all the chrome and bling on something like a Kenworth or Peterbilt ! Cheers Pat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cherry268 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Just caught up with this, it looks fantastic. It's a shame trucks end up like this, I have known some beauties that are lovingly looked after I used to work for a bulk haulage company and there were so many owner drivers who life was their trucks Try searching for Coles and Son Banbury and you will get some ideas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will do another build with this truck for sure, and that build will be one in the category "lovingly looked after". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
