This 4x2 Tractor is built using the two Italeri DAF 95 kits, one to get the right hand drive stearing, and the other to get the spoilers.
Tractor chassis was shortened and scratchbuilt air suspension and anti roll bar arrangement
Low loader is the Revell kit with scratchbuilt width extension plates and tie down hooks. Working springs added to the ramps.
Scratchbuilt aircleaner and smokestack support added
Signwriting is a mixture of rattlecan spraypainting with homemade stencils and using lettraset over pre painted red areas on the front and then painting the silver. Then to mask off silver signwriting with lettraset while overall red colour added. Then adding blue shaddow lines painted by hand
Fuel tank was a special made for me by Howard Whitehead of KFS
The photos were taken with the model on the roof of my car with the Ochil Hills in the background
The real truck in the Snowie Yard under the Ochil Hills with a tanker full of cow s*** to take to the fields for spraying (maybe a future tanker project)
This company has since changed name to Oran with nice blue trucks and are still heavy into waste and recycling
Hope you like
