Ryedale Wolf Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 (edited) OK I'm calling this finished. Heller Scania 141 cut down to 111 day cab. Not sure I'd attempt this again. Its an absolute **** to do. You lose quite a lot of structural integrity and the mauling the cab gets while you're rebuilding everything makes for a poor finish 😒.       Edited January 3, 2022 by Ryedale Wolf 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeroenS Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 I built the 141 last year and I definitely understand your comments on the chopping process. The cab is rather flimsy and the fit of the doors is an issue even on the standard thing. So I'd say you did a great job on this, and I like the result. The gloss black works well with the orange too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airea Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 That is a great model, very nice looking. My only critic would be the clean tires. A little weathering on tires would bring more realism to the model... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
